A few days back, I talked about how hugs can affect persons with 'invisible' disabilities, such as athritis. I think that I was unclear. Hugs are great. When I am given permission to not participate in physical activity, I feel included when I hear the permission. My real point wass that it is so easy to include the differently disabled (permission not to hug). It is a little thing but the differently abled are often disappeared. I don't suggest everyone concern themselves about the differently abled. I was writing in response to someone's else's inquiry about invisible disabilities. I enjoy hugs but if an exercise involves many hugs all at once, sometimes it hurts. I was not complaining about hugs: I was talking about inclusion. Sorry to belabor.
