Several years ago I was with a Boyscout group walking down The Lost Mine trail in Big Bend and being scouts they were complaning around a bend in the trail I saw 2 hikers comming up and behind them 3 hikers or "wheelers" as they called them selves,in modified chairs(trail chairs) these guys made it to the top about 4 hours after we had made it down,we were talking to them later that day and they said that the chair has never slowed them down.
That is a wonderful thing! Jacob is using a walker now chair for only big events, and this week, if theropy gets them he will learn how to use crutches and the are seeing about the dino splint for his knee
Thanks everyone one for your kind words and prayers!

Capt. thanks he does love to hunt we took him to a couple of over night hunts before his surgery and he loves to hunt in the dark his first one a couple of years ago he was like HOW do you hunt in the dark and wanted me to stay with him, Within 5 minutes I looked and he was gone, now he will come ck on me and say grandma do you need me to help YOU! Makes me really good!
Thanks 4-H its easy to do things like that every body needs to experience things, and so what if they need a little help, they can do it anyway!
God bless his heart. We take things for grated everyday we are alive then we see how others are not so fortunate Looks like he is a happy person despite his disabilities
