Teen Paralyzed In Shooting Surprises Classmates & Walks Graduation

The media call him a courageous victim. More like a courageous Survivor. A true legend.

Fun Fact: You didn’t search for this... BUT you weren’t disappointed.

There is a girl who was in my class who graduated with me recently. She went blind after a car accident and is in a wheelchair. But she'd been practicing standing up again and she walked onstage to get her diploma too. I was really inspired by her determination and her patience onstage, even though her legs must've hurt. She'd been having a difficult time at school but she had a sense of humor that was unrivaled. I'm also blind and graduated with academic honors but I didn't suffer anything as severe as this. I was so proud to be her classmate in graduation. She had only started high school that year and was graduating with me so she could go to an adult transition program. I bet she's doing so well there.

He deserves every last cheer he got. So much of an inspiration to all of us.

Teenagers can’t even go home safely anymore wtf Edit: I know my name and pfp is ironic guys. I changed it bc my hudred thousandth like ona. dif comment told me to change it in memory of the comment. It doesn't mean what you think it means lol

I'm so happy for that courageous young man and his family, seeing his accomplishment was beautiful ❤

I worked for 20 years as a spinal cord injury Rehab Nurse and very rarely did I get to see 1 of our patients walk out or come back and able to Walk this is very inspirational and im so glad for this young man

An example of never giving up he’s a winner

Prime example of how life can take a drastic turn literally overnight. Be humble folks nothing is promised.

What an incredible young man. He shows us how a real man handles challenges.

Couldn’t control tears of joy and pride in this young man. He is such an inspiration. Congratulations. Wishing you all the Best life has to offer you.

mistaken identity. either way that person should not be shooting anyone.

“Thankful I got a lot of friends and family” at age 15 after being paralyzed in a senseless act. What a STRONG MAN

I hope he has gotten even better in the past 7 years, and I hope he has had a good life since.

1st time that I am seeing this and it brought tears to my eyes. Congratulations Aaron for graduating and for not letting anything stop your dreams. Your parents and family and everyone that supported and helped you also deserve a very big Thank You.

This was four years ago meaning that he probably graduated from college by now. Hope he’s doing good 😌

His father has such a sweet and humble voice, glad he’s happy

I’m 14, and i couldn’t imagine that happening to me. I am SO PROUD of this young man! Truly a hero too. He should write a childrens book.

That's a tear jerker. I wish him all the best. What a fine young man!
