Disabilities & Accessibility: Life with paraplegia

Physiotherapist and host, Grant Fedoruk helps ensure we don't take our mobility for granted, as he connects with Theresa Wills, who has endured the challenges of living with a T12/L1 compression fracture, resulting in paraplegia. Theresa generously shares her experiences, shedding light on the daily obstacles she faces regarding accessibility. These hurdles encompass various aspects of life, including accessible parking, transportation, entrances to buildings, both residential and commercial, bathrooms, event venues, educational institutions, and recreational spaces such as playgrounds. Through Theresa's perspective, we gain insight into oversights that able-bodied individuals may unknowingly make and how we can actively contribute to positive change.
