Introduction:
The story ‘A Visit To Cambridge’ is the story of a meeting between two extraordinary people, both of them differently abled. Firdaus Kanga, the author himself, was born with ‘brittle bones’ that tended to break easily when he was a child. He moves around in a wheelchair. And as you know, Stephen Hawking was one of the greatest scientists of our time. He suffered from a form of paralysis that confined him to a wheelchair, and allowed him to ‘speak’ only by punching buttons on a computer. These two great men exchange thoughts on what it means to live life in a wheelchair, and on how the so called ‘normal’ people react to the differently abled. “. They shared a rare understanding of the psychological implication of such diseases. They also shared their notions about the various methods of overcoming their physical disabilities. Their meeting was a triumph of the mind over the body. All in all, this story supports all the people out there who are disabled and it stresses to the point that they should live their lives as normally as they could just like other normal people spend their lives.
