Heck on Wheels
by Loolwa Khazzoom • January 17, 2010 • Health & Wellness , The Washington Post
This Washington Post story offers my first-person account of a three-month stint in a wheelchair, including a cross-country book tour. Through this journey and article, I learned about and shared some of the trials, tribulations, and triumphs affecting millions of Americans with disabilities, who struggle with accessibility issues day-in and day-out.
