For this episode of Pathways of Healing, the host welcomes guest Adrain Valenzuela.

Adrain is a paraplegic who was injured as a horse jockey over six years ago.
During this episode, Adrain talks about his accident experience and the recovery
process both in the hospital setting and in recovery centers in the chronic
setting. Adrain also talks about his ability to get out of his comfort zone
post-injury and be reintroduced into the world, going to restaurants, concerts,
and other activities. Finally, Adrain shares his experience with fashion before
and after his accident, why fashion is and was important to him, and different
brands that have allowed him to be fashionable and comfortable in a
wheelchair.
