Little Boy Asks Woman In Wheelchair How To Do Wheelies, Sparks Sweet Friendship

It was the first time Hannah Hutzley had ever seen a child in a wheelchair, in person. She was in her wheelchair, shopping, when she heard a little boy whisper, “Hi… do you know how to do wheelies?” When she showed him how she did wheelies, his face lit up. His dad came over to help him, and Hannah said she almost cried because it was such a beautiful moment. Hannah was injured when she was 19, and that’s given her a new perspective on life, especially when seen through the eyes of a kid. “They just see it as how cool, you have a wheelchair and you can have fun with it.” It’s so cool that she gets to be that role model for someone else, she says - and it’s started a friendship.
