I can't believe it!! My automatic door opener for the front of the building has been approved. Yahoo!! This is a wonderful freedom for me. No more sitting in my wheelchair waiting for someone to hold the door open to let me out or let me in. This is a win for handicapped people everywhere in Vancouver. A big thank you to my brother Ken who helped with my request from the beginning and stayed with it for 5 long months until approval. Also thanks to Eva Cham, the OT from the ALS Clinic who sent a terrific letter to council before the proposal was presented at the annual general meeting--and thanks to many others involved who stepped up and helped me fight for my rights as a person with a disability. Thank you to all of you who knew of my plight and cheered me on. It is a day to be celebrated.
