Summary


After receiving a spinal injury I was in the worst possible position I could ever imagine. Life would never be the same and I really believed that I would not make it. My OT showed me that things were possible and that although life would be very different, it was still worth living. With her help to use a wheelchair and get in and out of bed I began to feel independent again. Now I can see a future, albeit from a wheelchair. Because of the knowledge I was given I can move on and consider myself able-disabled, not just disabled.”
