Students in the Fox Cities are still buzzing about Matt Glowacki, a Madison man who came to speak to them during Celebrating Abilities Week. His Walking is Over-Rated Program is specially designed for k-12 audiences and presented accross the United States.
This guy is great! I like the line that "I'm not a hero just because I'm in a wheel chair". Being seen as a "hero" is just a form of pity but most people wouldn't understand that. However, to say I'm not disabled to me is not in keeping with the message that its ok to be differently abled/disabled and so forth. But, I do understand what he's trying to say.
