After a motorcycle accident in India left him with a C4 complete spinal cord injury, Abdul spent seven years confined to bed, told by doctors he'd never be able to feed or dress himself. But his life took a turn when he was brought to the U.S. and began rehabilitation at Rancho Los Amigos, where he defied the odds and learned to feed and dress himself.<\/p>\n<p>Abdul\u2019s spirit is truly inspiring\u2014he\u2019s always pushing his limits and committed to his goals. Discharged with a power chair but lacking an adaptive van, he made it to rugby practice on public transport, setting his sights on using a manual wheelchair. With some support, we helped him access resources and secure a loaner chair, even coordinating transportation to the shop when his family couldn\u2019t bring him.<\/p>\n<p>Abdul\u2019s journey is a testament to the power of persistence and support. Watch his story and see how he continues to redefine what\u2019s possible!<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"yt-core-attributed-string--link-inherit-color\" dir=\"auto\">Keep the momentum going\u2014 save the date for <a href=\"https:\/\/triumph-foundation.org\/es\/givingtuesday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Giving Tuesday on December 3rd<\/a> as we continue to share stories of resilience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_video_widget wpb_content_element vc_clearfix   vc_video-aspect-ratio-169 vc_video-el-width-90 vc_video-align-left\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_video_wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Defying the Odds: Abdul&#039;s Inspiring Journey from Bedridden to Adaptive Sports\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ia22y2Ky6CA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_empty_space\"   style=\"height: 32px\"><span class=\"vc_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_center wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper   vc_box_border_grey\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"112\" src=\"https:\/\/triumph-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8abced5a-b9d6-87ad-b908-3a2cdce2ce1e.png\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-large\" alt=\"\" title=\"8abced5a-b9d6-87ad-b908-3a2cdce2ce1e\" srcset=\"https:\/\/triumph-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8abced5a-b9d6-87ad-b908-3a2cdce2ce1e.png 800w, https:\/\/triumph-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8abced5a-b9d6-87ad-b908-3a2cdce2ce1e-300x42.png 300w, https:\/\/triumph-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8abced5a-b9d6-87ad-b908-3a2cdce2ce1e-18x3.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_btn3-container vc_btn3-center vc_do_btn\" ><a class=\"vc_general vc_btn3 vc_btn3-size-lg vc_btn3-shape-rounded vc_btn3-style-modern vc_btn3-block vc_btn3-color-warning\" href=\"https:\/\/triumph-foundation.org\/es\/donate\/\" title=\"MAKE A GIFT\" target=\"_blank\">MAKE A GIFT<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\">If you or someone you know needs help, <a href=\"https:\/\/triumph-foundation.org\/es\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">please contact us.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meet Abdul, a 24-year-old with an incredible story of resilience and determination.
