Awesome thing by the Steelers.
Akeem Havens is a 14 year old kid who was paralyzed in an unfortunate car accident when he was riding home with his relatives one night. Steelers bring his wishes to reality.

What I thought the coolest thing about Akeem was when Roethlisberger asked how what he thought about being in a wheelchair. Akeem responded by saying something similar to " it doesn't bother me, its whatever." Nothing is holding him back from him doing what he wants. Playing video games with his chin if he has to. Kid has a lot of heart and you got to love that.
