So cool man. I really like how your light weight wheel chair has paint matched spokes to match your truck.

 

Mad respect Josh!!!!

There was a kid in a lifted dodge diesel on 35's who came into work one day and did the exact same steps getting in and out. Except his fall into his chair had to be a good 3ft. I dont know how the hell he got back in his truck.

 

Honestly Josh,its a real good thing sensation has developed after the accident.I would attribute it to your will to stay active.My wife is in phyical therapy so i end up hearing some stories similar to what has happened with you.My best advice for you would be to keep trying and do what you can to stimulate blood flow in your lower half by max assisted movement like pedaling or massages if you can swingem.I really think you got a good chance to regain some movement at some point.You would'nt be the first ive heard of regaining movement after complete lower paralysis.

 

Man, the things I take for granted. That'd make me think twice about just jumping in the truck and going to the corner for a case of beer.



I'd get 2 cases!

 

First of all I am honored to know you. Anyone who fights as hard on a daily basis to retain independence like you is my ******* hero.

The video is informative and quite possibly another disabled person will see it and realize their disability isn't so disabling. For that I commend you.

You are starting to get sensation? Watching you in the video it looks as though you use your legs a little to get in and out. Sensation is positive.

Thank you for sharing with us here.

 

In 2000 the 4th door was an option you had to pay for, for 2001 it was standard equipment.

I like the fact that you seem to be so comfortable with your disability.

 

you mind if I use this at work as a training vid ? . . .

 

Thought just occurred to me...you need to lower your truck Josh!
Might make it a bit easier to jump from your chair into your truck.

 

Hey man, that is a really cool video. Just goes to show that you can't keep a REAL truck guy down! Nice truck too, btw.

 

Or go even further and just swap the 5.3 into the chair
