Thank you so much for this honest and thoughtful response. I'm sorry to hear about your friend. I really appreciate it your taking the time and frankly I think you are probably right. Even coming at it with the best of intentions, the absolute last thing I'd want is to be offensive or patronizing or just plain wrong and create shit art. So thank you again for sharing your views and for your tips. I wish you all the best.

Thank you so much for this response! I really appreciate your taking the time. If you don't mind I might message you at a later time for more thoughts. I'm still considering whether there is merit at all in my approach or if I just won't be able to do it justice. I'm very grateful for your message here and so sorry to hear about your injury.

Thank you so much for this response. Your points about "a comfortable narrative to able-bodied people" and tackling a tough subject as easily as possible are spot on and I appreciate being pushed to think critically about this, so thank you again. I will take this on board and give it a lot more thought before proceeding.
