TO ALL #Covid19 DOCTORS:

I know you& #39;re going to be asked to make some terrible decisions in coming months.

But PLEASE. Please. Don& #39;t assume disabled people do not have rich, full lives we want to get back to. Please don& #39;t just automatically choose us to be the ones who die.

I& #39;ve already seen too many comments or videos from doctors talking about the terrible decisions, comments praised and supported by abled people, which centre on & #39;not being able to be you again& #39;.

These ideas are lethally dangerous.

A disabled life is not a tragedy. We don& #39;t become expendable just because our lives don& #39;t look like yours.

So I am begging you. If I end up in hospital with this, please do not assume I& #39;m the easy option to let die just because I& #39;m disabled. My life is worth saving.

I understand that there are lots of conditions which *some*, not all, disabled people might have which make survival much less likely, so in a triage system you have to focus on people who can be saved. That& #39;s not what I& #39;m talking about.

I know the decisions will be cruel and impossible to make. I& #39;m sorry you& #39;re going to go through that. Just, please, don& #39;t fall back on the already-systemic belief in the medical field that disabled people are not worth saving. Look deeper. Please.
