Life-Changing Device For People With Physical Disabilities

Hannah and I head back to BlueSky Designs - - to get my chair fitted for a Mount’n Mover. With the help of this incredible device, I can now raise and lower my joystick with the push of a button. For 10+ years, I’ve been unable to independently access my joystick, meaning I’m basically stuck wherever I park. Now, I’m able to move, park, and move again to my heart’s content, which has given me a huge boost in independence. I’ve only had the device for about 24 hours as of writing this, but I can tell already that my new ability will open countless opportunities for me.

Shane was born with a neuromuscular disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy that requires him to use an electric wheelchair. He is the author of several award-winning books, the President of a nonprofit organization called Laughing At My Nightmare, and a renowned public speaker who has performed across the country at places such as Harvard University, The University of Florida, The University of Connecticut, Princeton University, and many more.

Hannah is a senior at Carleton College, studying sociology and anthropology. She works as a researcher for an educational consulting firm. Her future aspirations include attending law school and owning a goat sanctuary. She films and edits the “Squirmy and Grubs” vlog.

Shane and Hannah have been dating for 3 years and living together in Minneapolis for a year. Their interabled relationship often confuses people, because much of society still cannot fathom people with disabilities being involved in loving, intimate relationships. Anyone who watches these episodes will quickly see their relationship is just as “normal” as any other. Sure, Hannah helps Shane use the bathroom and brush his teeth, but those activities do not detract from the emotional, intellectual, and physical connection they experience together.
