Having a mobility issue from a disability or injury can be a frustrating experience and at some point in your journey, you might be faced with the decision.
When should you get a wheelchair?
How do you feel about getting a wheelchair?
Knowing when it's time to get a wheelchair and thinking through how it will make you feel are important steps to living a full life with a mobility issue.
For someone like myself with Spina Bifida, I've had good seasons and more challenging seasons as it relates to my mobility. Even though I have been disabled since I was a child, using a wheelchair in public was still a difficult decision for many reasons.
The story I reference in the video about buying a grocery store when I was young:

Chase the Journey began as a personal blog of Jonathon Hyjek (me), to document my own accounts of living life as a person with Spina Bifida who also follows Jesus and lives as "normal" a life as I can.
I've been fortunate to have had many unique experiences and I love storytelling, so the YouTube channel seems like the next step in the natural progression. I guess you could call me a "disability blogger" or something like that?
Stay tuned for funny, insightful, random videos that discuss both serious and not very serious topics.
