And once he grows out of that stage, how will they get that head out of the room.Chat Icon

He was in a bad car accident the day his daughter was born, when he was driving his sons home. His sons were fine, but he suffered brain injuries.

He has lived with his parents for the past 2 years, because there is more room in their house for him to get around.

He was on the way home from the hospital visiting his wife after she just gave birth to their daughter (that day) and was in a car accident. He had both sons in the car, but they weren't hurt.
He's had 4 brain surgeries since the accident.

It was too small for his wheelchair and the floors weren't level.
