A disability is any physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities for an individual.1 The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) also defines disability as a person who has a history or record of such impairment or a person who is perceived by others as having such an impairment.2 The ADA’s broad definition of disability allows a broad application of its protections. A major life activity is a function that is important to most people’s daily lives, such as breathing, walking, talking, hearing, seeing, sleeping, eating, caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, and working.3
