Avichai Sheli: "I Stand Firmly on Our Right as People with Disabilities to Marry 'Typical' Partners"
Avichai Sheli was born healthy. However, as a result of an illness and poor medical treatment, he lost his hearing and later, unfortunately, his sight. In a moving article, he outlines the challenges he faced in his quest to build a home in Israel and his methods of overcoming them. "Despite all this, I stand firmly on our right as people with disabilities to marry 'typical' partners, not to limit us further by matching us only with those who have disabilities. It is painful and indicative of a glaring social inequality."
