One minute, you are living your #BestLife, and your life changes in a split second. For Paul Hopkins, this happened when playing high school #Football in 2004 after tackling an opponent, he became paralyzed.
Paul had a significant #Support group with his family and friends that would take him where he needed to go, and he had a full-time nurse until he decided to move away for college and work on becoming #Independent.
Once, he received his first adaptive vehicle from Alexandria, Virginia-based MobilityWorks – 13 years after his injury. “It changed my life a lot by helping me become independent,” states Paul. “I can drive and go out of town, travel, and meet new people.”
“Without my vehicle, it would be very difficult to make it to work, and I wouldn’t have been able to travel to visit my fiancé and grow that relationship,” Paul says.
