dc.description.abstract | Naturally there are people present here who are better versed in this subject than myself but as an introduction to the seminar one can say that physical or mental handicaps are sometimes present at birth through a genetic disorder or acquired through some accident or disease. People who are handicapped from birth are aware of the disadvantage brought on by their handicap, but gradually and progressively, later on in life they realize more fully the difficulties facing them. Those who are suddenly faced with a handicap through some accident or disease are initially shocked by this new situation, and this trauma is felt more at the beginning because - consciously or sub-consciously - these people start making comparisons with the situation as it was before the accident or disease, when they were still fully fit. | en_GB |
