The term disabled is used to designate those people who have some type of injury, especially if it is permanent or irreversible. Crippled is a person then who has some type of physical difficulty following the normal parameters of health and well-being and therefore cannot lead a complete and completely satisfactory life. A person who is disabled may be in this condition because of a particular situation that occurred during his life or from birth.
The word cripple is related to the verb cripple. Crippling is hurting or generating some kind of permanent injury to a person. This action of aggression can be generated both by one person to another, as by an object, even by natural forces of nature. The disabled person then suffers from a certain type of disability that prevents them from acting as a person considered healthy would normally do and must have some type of technological assistance that can be more or less useful depending on each case.
When we speak of disabled people, we refer mainly to people who suffer from a disability in their limbs, usually in the legs. Therefore, it is common to associate the qualifying adjective disabled with a person who is in a wheelchair, who does not have both legs or who has some difficulty or complication to move normally and comfortably. As in most cases the disabled condition is permanent, there are few occasions in which the person can recover from the injury and must then face the rest of his life in these conditions. Having technical and technological help, but mainly moral, emotional and psychological help is always necessary for a person to better deal with such a situation.
