The tone and focus of this discussion would be quite different if we all stopped the pity party and called it what it truly is if any of us where in that persons life. Disability occurs when an individual has relinquished the will to succeed in a task (Burnell has not!). Stop now with the responses of the horrors of losing your limbs, sight or hearing. The accomplishments of an individuals' life relies completely on the willingness to overcome CHALLENGES. The parental cowards who claim to be guarding their offspring's best interest are simply extending their insecurities and lack of self confidence to their children. I am appalled with the lack of grass roots support from the Challenged Community. There should be a deafening out cry in support for the role model Burnell displays for all physically challenged individuals.
