I think everything I do has gotten easier. Whether it be going up and down stairs, going up and down a ramp, going up and down a sidewalk, pushing through gravel—it's gotten easier because I'm, I'm continuously doing it over, and over, and over.

No, I've been in a wheelchair over two decades and I'm still challenged, I'm still challenged." It's still tough going through some places, but I've armed myself with the experience and the knowledge that now these challenges just become easier.
