"There are millions of people out there ignoring disabilities and accomplishing incredible feats. I learned you can learn to go things differently, but do them just as well.I've learned that it's not the disability that defines you, it's how you deal with the challenges the disability presents you with. And I've learned that we have an obligation to the abilities we DO have, not the disability.'
- Jim Abbott
