40
years ago, Michael Sulsona lost his legs to a landmine in Vietnam. For
two years, he's been trying to get the Veterans' Administration to
provide him with a replacement for the rickety old wheelchair that he's
been using. The
old chair finally collapsed while Sulsona and his wife were in a Lowe's hardware store on Staten Island, New York. Sulsona describes
what happened next:
Three
employees, David, Marcus and Souleyman jumped to my assistance
immediately. They placed me in another chair while they went to work.
They took the wheelchair apart and replaced the broken parts and told me, "We're going to make this chair like new."
I left 45 minutes after closing hours in my wheelchair that was like new.
I kept thanking them and all they could say was, "It was our honor."
