“I would love to be able to walk again, but my mind always works at a very fast pace, so it’s a go, go, go, go. I get around faster in the wheelchair than I can with other devices… as long as I can still keep up, I’m good.” ***Sharon is certified as a peer mentor with the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation, Ability 360, and United Spinal.***
“Your wheelchair can literally be your legs anyway. Yeah you may not be able to go jump and leap, and maybe not be able to go up stairs as easy and other things, but there’s always something that can aid you in that way. "Get yourself mentally healthy as soon as you can, and deal with those emotions as soon as you can... Once I accepted that I’m very likely going to be in this chair the rest of my life, it opened up everything." Meet Erik Kondo, superbly skilled wheelchair-boarder and inventor. "Life is not fair, and honestly I wouldn't want life to be fair because if everything were always fair it's actually pretty boring." |
