She received her chair from CONADIS and Rosa took us there to see her last year. Her chair was making her legs just ache all the time because it did not fit her correctly.

The Spencers said they were going to find her a new one. She is a wonderful young woman who caught a stray bullet at age 17 and has been in a wheelchair ever since. She was going to play pro basketball and volleyball, but her life was drastically altered by that stray bullet.<br />Darrel and Joanne Hammonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05957897249232282948noreply@blogger.com
