A day in the park - in a power chair

I found a few YouTube videos about Josh, who is a young boy who became a quadriplegic after being in a car accident a year or so ago. After watching a few interviews of him and his family, I chose this one. It's very simple. It shows Josh trying out a loaner power chair. The absolute freedom of movement he experiences as he goes across the grass (in a park perhaps) with the wind flying through his hair left me speechless. Perhaps it's because I know what that feels like - to try out equipment that makes you able to move so much easier.

The cost of that power chair? Expensive, no doubt. The look on his face-priceless.
