********* Teen Fulfills Vow to Walk at High School Graduation

[gunslingingbird]

A ***** 17 years-in-the-making came true for a California boy when he got out of his wheelchair and walked to accept his high school diploma.

Patrick Ivison, a senior at Scripps High School in San Diego, was just 14-months-old when he was run over by a stranger's car while walking with his ***, Jennifer Kayler. The September 1995 accident left Ivison with a spinal cord injury so severe he was ********* from the waist down.

Kudos to him. :clap: :hatsoff:

He was already walking at 14 months? That just makes it more tragic and cruel.
