Deep Cuts to Medical Research Funds Could Hobble University Budgets

Disability is not a personal or moral failing. Everyone is one accident, infection or stroke of bad luck from becoming disabled.
When someone asks for help, give it freely and without strings. Don’t judge them or tell them to “try harder”.
One day it’ll be your turn.
