Well, 'The Fault in Our Stars' can be considered in a way. The male lead, Augustus, has a disability (osteosarcoma). It's a deeply moving love story about two young people facing their own health challenges while falling in love. These novels often explore themes of love, acceptance, and the power of human connection beyond physical limitations.
One common theme is acceptance. The able - bodied character often has to accept the disabled hero as they are, and vice versa. For example, in 'Me Before You', Louisa has to accept Will's decision about his life even though she loves him. Another theme is the power of love to overcome obstacles. Love gives the characters strength to deal with the challenges that come with the disability.
😋I recommend the following novels to you: "The Farmer's Daughter Doesn't Leave the Hall": Once she transmigrated, she became mute and married a disabled husband. However, she had space and medical skills, and achieved a counterattack in the weakened world. "Tian Yuan Shang Fei: Husband, Let's Farm Together": She married a disabled husband, but he was getting closer and closer to a warm man. Moreover, he was good-looking, had a good brain, and had good physical strength at night. Therefore, she was content to take care of her disabled husband to earn money. "You Feng Lai Yi: The Crippled King Drowned the Princess Consort": She transmigrated into a sickly little beauty and was forced to marry a disabled prince. She was a bad character, but she turned the tables and achieved the world of martial arts. <<Stupid Prince's Counterattack Concubine>>: She was the useless Fourth Miss of the General's Mansion, but she was persecuted and drowned. When she woke up again, she had a special ability to help a disabled prince achieve a counterattack. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
