She simply can't walk and uses a cane everywhere but in the house. I almost blew a gasket when her doctor told her he wasn't going to approve a tag and she should just walk and get over it. Meanwhile specialists said that her knees, unless replaced, cannot sustain long durations of walking. After forcing her to get a different doctor who spoke with the specialists, he did some more research to help alleviate the problem while also granting her the placard until they can fix the situation.

So I don't say judge others, but there are times when you KNOW that that person is not handicapped in any capacity except when it comes to being a good person.
