Will Pike

That's good.

That's good.

Will is now trying to learn essentially a new life, his new life, surrounded by those all doing the same.

As he puts it, his new club.

This was early Dawes camaraderie, this was early Dawes solidarity, fraternity, that type of sense of belonging to something bigger than myself that, again, going back to these intersectionalities, as a white male middle class man, you don't

You don't have, you don't have a subset.

You don't have no minority culture because we are the culture.

We are the defacto.

But now as a disabled man, I belong to a different club.

And I'm like, oh, this is interesting.

And without realizing we're there propping each other up.

And that's just early doors.

That's even before the term disability has been banded about.

At this point, we're just medicalized.

We're spinally injured.

And you're coming to terms with those things and the mechanics involved that enable you to preserve your life.

And so much of it is, this is how you don't kill yourself.

This is how you don't get a pressure sore.
