Wheelchairs: Freedom For Many.
I have a friend who for years has suffered from the debilitating effects of multiple sclerosis.
At first, his disease was relatively mild and maintained fairly well with physical rehabilitation and exercise. But as time went on, and the disease progressed, my friend became partially restricted in how he got around. Initially, this reality was rather sad.
But thank goodness for wheelchairs, because without his, my friend would be confined to moving around his home with a walker, or even bed ridden.
Giving much-welcomed mobility to millions of people, these miracle inventions offer freedom, confidence, and self-esteem to their occupants.
