while traveling throughout the world. Unfortunately he lost his legs and left arm in a
tragic accident, leaving only a finger and thumb on his right hand. He became so2
that he was afraid he would spend his life3and would no longer be able to use his
life in a(n)4way.
One day, he remembered how he had always loved getting5. He realized that he
still had partial6of his right hand and could write with7 . Then, he had an idea,
