This is 19 year old Awmae. She was shot and paralyzed waist down. She lived with her father in a small village for 3 years afterwards, never leaving the house. She was sponsored about 6 weeks ago and sent here to the McKean Center for help. She has found new friends and blossomed here at the center. She’s learning how to become self sufficient, and her 1st wheelchair will help greatly. In the end picture with Awmae is Theresa Morita (therapist), Annie Garner (support), Vincent (Pioneer, perennial help), Greg Bierre (Mechanic).
