Red Hawk although I am not disabled I know where you are coming from, I have nothing but admiration for the folks who are disabled yet chose to continue on with life and not allow their disability to run their lives.
Edward and Bruce folks like you all are one of the reasons I am forming the VDOC, you are the example to the disabled who feel as if their butt is kicked and throw in the towel. Folks like you are the ones I want to talk to the recently disabled and even the long term disabled to tell and show them that they can return to the outdoors, whether it is simply with some sort of aid or an assistant.
You have the fortitude to refuse to let a disability run your life and some folks just need to see that their disability can be overcome to allow them to return outdoors, it is so much easier to try something that you have seen someone do, than it is to be the first one to do it.
