Hello
My name is Oliver Raymond, I’m 46 years old.
It seems today that I am at a crossroads.
My way is my accident, which I was 23 years old.
I am 46 years old today.
If, in fact, this is universal.
(Laughter)
I lived this extraordinary period
During the army period I spent with my colleagues,
I do not regret anything.
Despite everything that happened to me – back to France with one arm –
It is not easy.
I got a modest career it’s cooking –
You are a gourmet cook –
I have a good number of achievements,
Beautiful achievements in the kitchen.
Then I wanted to perform my compulsory service,
I wanted to get involved in the navy to see how things were going elsewhere.
And already I was there.
That was great,
After my incident,
I decided to go back to France and complete my scientific research.
For me, the academic level was not very strong;
Rather I was the one sitting at the end of the row next to the air conditioner.
They made me say:
“You have to get your education back, that’s important.”
In order to get a pay day adequate enough,
In order to live on a level,
You should get whatever you want. “
If I finished my studies I became a sales manager.
And so on.
My goal today,
To “change the world’s view” of the disabled.
I hope …
After my talk, what I want, is to say to yourselves:
“Ah, disabled, they can be so too.”
So, that’s my goal.
You have to know that the disabled, who we talk about a lot, are good or bad.
Not important, no problem.
We have the right not to agree, this is logical,
But in any case one Frenchman among five others is disabled,
This is a huge, French-five.
12 million of the French have some form of disability.
That’s a lot.
In fact, it was not invented,
Truth, the source of this is the law – I have my trump card which states:
“The formation of disability, in the sense of modern law,
No activity is incurred by a person
Due to permanent, permanent or complete defect
Physical, sensory, mental, cognitive or psychological function. “
Imagine,
12 million people with disabilities –
This means permanent or temporary.
This law, has a broad spectrum, very, very.
In my life, I, I live well, for my handicap.
I call my disability 50 \ 50: You take a step, I take a step.
And so we communicate.
We discuss, share, share, and this is good.
I like this.
If, indeed,
It is not always certain to approach a disabled person.
This is normal, logical.
No problem.
We should not be ashamed.
It is normal, I have just arrived to you,
What you see today is that I have a physical disability …
I am multi-functional, I apologize,
I am bald and fat and my arm is missing.
(Laughter)
I can not do anything, excuse myself.
In fact, that is the means.
If we take one step toward the other,
That will succeed.
Not only for the disabled, but for all people too.
Well, well.
I,
The most successful as well.
In fact, I tell you, I live a disability quite well.
My favorite story is: “No arm …”
Audience: No chocolate!
Completely!
This is my favorite story. I love her.
My colleagues sometimes represent me.
We laugh
One day, when my daughter was small,
she said to me:
“But Dad,
“You say that, but you still have a half-board.”
(Laughter)
I can tell you that I was comfortable, I love chocolate.
(Laughter)
He reassured me.
Of course, you inevitably doubt that people like me,
People with disabilities do not all live like this,
Do not live as well as I do,
I have the opportunity to be raised by the parents who love me,
With a fixed track,
Evolutionary, when I was young.
He gave me that character,
He gave me that positive, as you can see today.
When I became that image,
Three months later, I was as I am now.
I said to myself:
“Either I see a psychiatrist and I cry all my life,
Either I go through the obstacles and I go. “
I chose the second solution.
I chose to live well.
Well, of course the life of the disabled is not always easy,
Not completely white there are also difficulties,
But I tried to put it aside and take only the pros.
I said “positives”, because this disability gave me great strength.
This is the objective of casual,
To show you that disability can also be so.
Then,
the work.
The work is not certain,
Because if the person is disabled and has work,
It will often be good, but sometimes it’s bad.
When this is done well,
Things are reflected.
For example, while working in a company,
The manager wanted to meet me and say:
“Mr. Raymond, I want to hire people like you.”
I said to him: “Beautiful like me?
(Laughter)
Like me?
Who carry the carrot peeler to the cafeteria like me? “
(Laughter)
“No Mr. Raymond No.”
“I know exactly what you want to say, but it is not.
This file from the mail, hack, open it –
That,
You take a good person with a talent,
Well, he’s a disabled person, here’s wisdom! “
(Laughter)
This manager told me one day:
“Have you seen? I have made a steep step in my company,
But was not used by anyone “
“Yes, that’s normal,
Because people on wheelchairs represent 2% to 3%.
So you will not see them very much “
“Ahh, well, I’ll tear him down then.”
“Oh no, use it –
You’ll see how disabled people will use it without a wheelchair
Your employees,
When they will be safe from using the elevator,
They will use it. “
He is a liar to a company
When I am cleaning or moving to another job,
I often check the toilets.
OK…
Not the same thing as you,
But check where the water dispenser is,
Because if it is on the right, it will be complicated.
So I put a hypothesis,
If possible, install the dealer on the left?
And guess what?
The distributor on the left works better.
Unlike the dealer on the right.
As you can see, this also serves healthy people.
This is important.
So, what I can not do of course.
Ask it from others.
For example,
Hold a cervical tie from time to time.
Or my shoe strap,
I put the lace in my shoes,
When I get to work,
I ask my colleagues to tie it to me.
Gently and very carefully,
I hold the first individual ligament,
Then he gets up to leave.
I say to him, “No, one arm, but two feet”
(Laughter)
Then, that gets better, and you’re used to having a second.
I also want to say,
The fact is that,
Persons with disabilities,
Do not owe them anything,
I want to remove this obsession.
When we are healthy with disabled people, this is not our fault.
You can sleep peacefully this evening.
It is not your responsibility, I swear to you.
I am never responsible for what you are.
[And vice versa].
Here we come to an ideal equality.
So be assured.
Let us rest,
You can review this matter quietly.
Do not hesitate to tease the disabled with a comic sense.
Do not hesitate of course.
If you are rejected, you should not.
Help a disabled person respond to you: “You do not need to.”
“Very good, not you.”
This will be done well.
Do not hesitate to be raised on the hand this is better than not.
This will be excellent.
And what I want to say to you also,
That the disabled person,
He has no wings of angels in his back.
No halo above his head.
Of course I can be by your faults and mistakes.
I can be
Bad like you, I can lie like you, or be absolutely wonderful.
very smart.
No problem, as you see I have the proverb
Except for difference,
That a disabled person, for a healthy person,
That in the morning:
When you leave your home,
Dress your clothes and carry your bags,
You go to school.
To Agro Paris Tech
Then,
When you return to your homes. Put your bags.
The disabled person does not put the bag.
This is the difference between you and him.
This is important.
I also want to say,
We got a great focus.
In period:
Because of the movie “Prohibited”
We were particularly focused on this film.
20 million people saw him. The madmen like me saw him twice.
Crazy trick.
He focused a lot on us. Thank you very much, because …
Of course, the person in this film is rich,
He is handicapped, but rich.
Yes, but it does not prevent that –
The meaning of the story, not that, in fact
I adore this film, so this gave us a great picture and reputation.
For people with disabilities.
I want to conclude with a saying
As long as you can.
Do not forget, as long as you can,
Add colors to your life, that’s important.
Thank you so much!
