The photo features a couple who met on a dating site. The woman on the left told Stanton she sent her partner a message before they met saying: “I want to let you know up front that I’m in a wheelchair, because I can’t hide it.”
The woman’s response?
“Why? Is it bright yellow?”
We’re so happy they found each other.
