Over the holidays my family took a 980 km trip from the San Francisco Bay area to the Oregon coast. We visited a historical lighthouse, traversed a river on a modern 窶徭undial窶〓bridge, and ate in an ethnic restaurant. At each stop along the way we explored the surroundings together, and now I have memories made of us laughing, playing and enjoying each other-- together. This privilege was ours because my son Daniel has a wheelchair. Many families whose children can窶冲 walk are unable to make such memories together. Daniel窶冱 wheelchair made it possible for him to travel with us. There are many still waiting for a wheelchair that will allow them to be break out of isolation and be given the privilege to be included in their family and community. Thank you to each who has volunteered time, energy and resources to help make this possible for others.
