Description
Don Grazier, 45, director of the Houston Center for Independent Living, says, The great fear of many handicapped people is of being shut away on the sidelines in a nursing home. The wheelchair is the way out of this." Grazier, a quadriplegic from birth, spent six of his teen years in a nursing home in Erie, Pennsylvania. But now he gets along quite well with his motorized wheelchair. He turns pages and writes with metal devices held in his mouth.
