We carry Kevan : six friends, three countries, no wheelchair / Kevan Chandler.
Kevan is just one of the guys--despite having spinal muscular atrophy. So when his friends decided to travel Europe together, they left Kevan's wheelchair at the Atlanta airport, boarded a plane, and carried him around in a backpack, allowing him to see Paris, England and Ireland from the same perspective as everyone else for the first time in his life.
