The Gifted Writer, by Mark Tulin

Winston believed that writing was a blessing, if not a miracle. For he was disabled, and to be able to write each day was life-affirming. Winston had a steady stream of ideas and got the most out of his mental capacities. It was the ultimate satisfaction to breathe his words into the mic and have them printed on paper. His wife edited his poems, sent them to various publications, and some were published. It was gratifying to have his wife read his poetry in a magazine as he sat stiffly in the wheelchair unable to move but an inch.
