Disability as a Challenge

Examples of the Biographies of Rose Czacka (Mother Elizabeth) and Professor Wojciech Chudy

Abstract

Disability is most often associated with suffering, rejection and solitude. Indeed, people affected by physical deficiencies are often marginalised as they do not keep up with what is fashionable, do not fit into the standards of life and the canons of beauty. However, despite prevailing opinions, many have proved through their lives and personal dignity that they are not worse than those considered to be physically fit. In this article, I refer to the biographies of two people with disabilities: Wojciech Chudy and Mother Elizabeth – Rose Czacka. Using the examples of their lives, I describe how the fragile existence of man can become an inspiration for action, a role model and a source of reflection on our own life.
