    YES! Healthy relationships are built on commitment, dedication and respect.

    A personal story:

    I grew up with a guy who was labelled "special ed". He was a really nice guy, and a talented artist. When we were in elementary and people would tease him, I'd beat them up (in the social scene, I was considered "popular", he was considered "slow"). I always maintained a friendship with him. When he became an adult, he had a girlfriend who was also "special ed"; she became pregnant, & they had the baby. During the birth, she experienced complications (which had nothing to do with her disability), and suffered a stroke. My friend took care of the mother and child, while working, until the mother passed away several years later. He continued to care for his son. A couple years ago, he married a woman who wasn't disabled, and she adopted the boy. For me, my friend represents everything wonderful about strong, dedicated men. I know men who are not "disabled" who haven't stepped up to the plate and stuck it out like he has. He's a wonderful father and husband, and takes steps to remember Mama for his son.

    Just some food for thought...
