Good for him! I had friends in chairs who'd go to parks and go fishing with me. I really admired their spirit and tenacity. They were truly exceptional. I also knew people with disabilities who could walk, but very seldom did because they were embarrassed by how they looked doing it. And on the other hand I knew those who walked everywhere and refused to use a chair despite knowing that people stared at them when they did. I admired them too. They were tough as can be. After working with so many disabled people I can tell you that attitude had everything to do with how well they rehabbed and moved on in life. One of the greatest joys of doing that job was convincing them they could drive our vehicles. They came in thinking "there's no way I can do this" and left with such a sense of achievement and excitement of using their new mobility. And, really, well earned pride that they had come so far. That kind of rehab is a really tough row to hoe.
