Being immobile is one of the most difficult things in the world; especially if you weren't born that way. Having to rely on others to do basically everything for you can feel degrading and devastating. I know this first hand because I was bound to a wheelchair for four months, after a bicycle accident. The accident itself was VERY traumatic but going from an independent woman to depending on everyone else was even more traumatic for me.
But even still I was very blessed and fortunate, to have a wheelchair; it might seem trivial but it means so much.
Many people in this world can't afford and don't have a wheelchair to move around. As a result they can't work or go to school...I'm sure you can imagine the affects of this. No work leads to no money, which leads to no food to eat and survive...so on and so forth. Recently, I saw on television grown men and women, walking on their hands and knees (yes, like an animal) because they have no other way to get around.
The Wheelchair Foundation provides wheelchairs to those in need. Help me spread the word! Tell everyone about this unique relief mission. By spreading the word, more and more people will join the fight against immobility. Also, if you have a used or new wheelchair that is not being used you can donate it to The Wheelchair Foundation, they will come to pick it up from you. I donated mine!
