7 years later - College graduation...
#1
This is an article in regards to a student who was paralyzed (neck down) due to a random mugging. Incredible, about the same time (roughly 2016) I wanted to go into the biotech or biomedical engineering industry and was thinking of creating similar technological devices to help individuals with their everyday life. It's great that there are such technological advances over the years and it's also amazing to see this individual not give up and complete his associates degree... Inspiring story of persistence of getting to that educational goal...

MSN Link: Weeks before graduating high school, he was shot and paralyzed. 7 years later, he walked across the stage to accept his college degree (msn.com)
News Link: Seven years after paralysis, Reynolds student graduates (richmond.com)
