People tend to look at you differently while you’re in a cast.
From my recent observations, I summed it up into three types of people: Loving; Indifferent; and the Horrified ones.

Loving People
They are the ones who will go out of their way to open a door for you, move a chair or a table to one side, offer food or other stuff you might need before settling down. They will often watch over your leg, like a hawk, making sure nothing comes within a 1 meter radius.

Indifferent People
They see your casted leg but make like it’s a normal, like socks. They will gladly open doors for you, only when asked (about 3 times, you might be even told to wait for their help). They leave stuff on the ground unmindful of the handicapped person crutching their way to and fro. They can look at you and not see your casted leg or the pair of crutches protruding from your armpits.

Horrified People
Usually aged 45 up, who would look at you like you were a terrorist by your mere presence and that a handicapped person like you should stay inside the house until you’re fully healed (and by “fully” I mean back to your normal walking state) They stare and stare, at the cast. Some ask how you fell, but don’t make eye contact, they do make cast eye contact, though. Some even bow their heads while you hobble past them. And you often feel like a monster around them.
