My first introduction to this concept was Tobin Sieber's book Disability Theory[0].

He referred to able-bodied people as TABs, Temporarily Able-Bodied. You are born a helpless infant and, if lucky, die a helpless elder.

> The cycle of life runs in actuality from disability to temporary ability back to disability, and that only if you are among the most fortunate.
