Wheel Talk

Wheel Talk was a good experience, the man who was instructing us and telling us about his past and that you could become disabled anytime, but having to adapt to that is the problem. This man was very nice, he also talked to us about his life and how amputating his legs changed his life. He let us use the wheelchair in a game and also for a teat run. We played a game of basketball but without actually bouncing the ball.  Telling us his story, l felt like l have to think about choices differently and having to back out from my surroundings. Wheel Talk was a very good experience informing us and showing what it's like to be in his shoes.

Wheel Talk was amazing as it helped me experience what disabled people feel everyday. It was fun playing wheel chair Basketball and l learned that you can play basketball even if you are disabled. The best part was when we asked him question and he unraveled his perspective and told us how hard his every day life was thought he was quite used to everything. It was fun and exciting having this little talk and playing the awesome game.
