“...I turned to the chap that was helping me translate and I said, ‘Oh, would you tell all these people that I’m so moved—that they brought all these family and community members to be with them when they get their wheelchair?’ And he looked back at me and said, ‘They would just think I was crazy if I told them that. That’s just the way they are.’” — Sharon Lewis
