Upon seeing this sculpture I immediately was reminded of a wheelchair bicycle I saw go by the Visitor’s Center & Tram station one Sunday afternoon. It was built much like that pictured below and was carrying a wheel chair bound resident of Goldwater hospital out for some fresh air.
All too many of us think only of the hospital residents that are mobile in their chairs and beds and tend to forget about the immobile hospital residents for whom this bicycle chair must seem as if they are actually flying. If I see this real life chair again I hope to video it for you here as it was really inspiring and uplifting to see the joy on that riders face.
