For Team USA Paralympic powerlifter Garrison Redd, some of the toughest challenges he faces are actually away from the crowds, when he’s at home. He’s lived in a wheelchair for two decades now, and as he explains in a blog post today he penned for Google, “When you’re paralyzed, your home goes from being a place of comfort and security to a reminder of what you’ve lost. Light switches and thermostats are usually too high up on the wall and, if my phone falls on the floor, I may not be able to call a friend or family member if I need help.”
