I'm Attacked For Being Paralysed And Pregnant | LOVE DON'T JUDGE

AN INTERABLED couple have hit back at online trolls who have criticised them for their decision to start a family. Alyssa and Jimmy, both 30, from New York, USA, met online in the summer of 2013, and soon fell in love. But the couple has sadly had to deal with some judgement, because Alyssa is disabled due to a spinal cord injury. She explained how people make hurtful assumptions about her capabilities, and have even implied that Jimmy has a "fetish" for people in wheelchairs. Thankfully the pair also have a lot of online support and try to focus on the positives. But when Alyssa began documenting her pregnancy with their first baby, Luke, who was born in May, on Instagram, where she has 112,000 followers, she was met with some criticism, with strangers calling her "irresponsible". Jimmy said: "They don’t know our situation and how much she is capable of. She's an amazing girlfriend, fiancé, now wife and mother and I just can't wait to keep growing as a family together."
