How many of these sticks can you make to walk the trails. I know found =
three others that might like a stick too. One a quadraplegic on a =
ventilator like Chrisopher Reeves another with Lou Gerigs disease on a =
ventilator that actually had the dream of walking the Appalachian. The =
other I haven't met but know he is a paraplegic stuck in a nursing home =
to get the needed care. His wife is divorcing him because of the =
disability issues. He recently joined my church family. I think this =
would really be a wonderful gift for them and by the way maybe one could =
be sent to Christopher Reeves too. He used to be quite an athlete and =
might appreciate this. Maybe the ATC could do a general sponsership for =
the disabled with this idea. Statistic show that is a large number of =
people injured and paralised every year in the US alone. There's also =
Joni Erickson Sintada(?SP) that might like a stick too.
