but I’m compelled to express my admiration and respect your willingness to intercede on behalf of a total stranger’s appeal for help. I feel somehow inadequate at my own inability to be of service, but suspect that
if not many, then at least one member of this list will come forward with the information you need.
Good Luck,
Boyd

I went to Lawrenceburg, IN, and I was transferring into my wheelchair from my car with my Mom in a parking garage. I heard someone sitting behind our car, and when I was situated, I turned around and saw a young black man in a wheelchair (a regular hospital chair not evaluated and fit to his needs). He said, "How do you do that, get out of you car like so?" I said, "It has taken hard work to learn the sliding technique. I slide on a transfer board to the front seat." He then said, "Do you think you could help me? I do not have a chair like that so I can go out to the mall and stuff like that. I told him to give me his phone number and I would call him with resources, a way to do things, and that I would walk him through this and get him the things that he needed to become independent. I had never seen this person in my entire life, but he needed help and he called upon a stranger in a parking garage. God works in mysterious ways. My question to everyone is if you know about any good support groups, or Independent Living Centers in Hamilton Co., OH? I will be calling him to discuss his situation, and his different needs, and I want to be prepared to answer all his questions thoroughly. I am not familiar with the State of Ohio, so if anyone can send me info, it would be appreciated.***Hello everyone! I hope you are doing fine. Keep your heads up, because tomorrow the sun will rise again.
