New Wheel Chair For the Outdoorsman
#1
Folks,
I thought I would share this with my Friends here at Huntingnet. The gentleman who created this wheel chair his name is John Rackley. John like you and I has a passion for the outdoors that is truly remarkable. Twelve years ago while playing with his kids on a Trampoline John fell on his side and broke his neck. At that time many people would have given up and come to the fact that what they have lived to love has been taken from them. Not John. He is a partial Quadriplegic with limited mobility in both arms. I met him in Bear Camp last week and I can not tell you the inspiration that John was to me and to all that met him. I guess the morale of this message is if you know someone who loves the outdoors and has limited mobility let them know that there is an alternative outdoor there and this wheelchair is unreal in the elements.

Thanks for the info. I might be needing this in a couple of years. I know it's inevitable, but I'm fighting it, kicking and screaming all the way.
I suggest you go down the forum and post it in the Disabled Hunters.
