If you don't mind answering, how did you become a wheeler? Was it an accident, illness, born disabled, etc. I've always found your stories interesting.

Spinal Muscular Atrophy type 2. I was put in a "hot wheels" themed power chair at 2 and a half. I was terrified of it at the hospital but loved it when I got home, crashed into the sofa pushing it and dad across the room. Dad spent a lot of time patching up walls.

Cerebral palsy due to lack of oxygen during an unsuccessful vaginal delivery. In its place should have a C-section been done. What, according to doctors, would have guaranteed a birth without the slightest problem. My father told me years later when I was old enough to understand that I was born unconscious and cyanotic namely with my face purple and my fingers and feet bluish... But, unfortunatelly, an AB Kiran is no more...

I ran my jeep off the road and was ejected through the passenger's side almost three years ago, but I like to tell people I got shot during a drug raid, it's got better street cred.
