However, Bob had a disability. He couldn't move any part of his body except for his arms.

It made Bob sad to see all the people around him that could walk and run and jump. He wanted to be able to walk around too!

Bob told his friend Leroy, the little boy that Bob belonged too, that he wanted to walk, so Leroy tried to teach him.

No matter how hard Bob tried he couldn't walk. He tried to focus on other things as much as he could.

Since he had blue tooth he had the ability to access and learn about a lot of things.

This kept him occupied for a while but eventaully he would just be come depressed again.

He wanted to be able to visit the places that he learned about.

It was true, Bob had been to Disney world and to the family cabin in Michigan but he had to be carried about by Leroy.

He wanted to be independent and he wanted to travel the whole world.

One day, Leroy came up with the idea to make Bob a wheel chair. Though he would not be able to walk he would be able to get around on

his own.
April 26, 2010, 2:29 pm - [13]
Bob was very happy when he saw the wheel chair. He wheeled around in it 24/7. ( This is not a exaggeration considering that Bob didn't

sleep). Eventually Bob become so good at manuvering in the chair that he felt that he could go off on his own.

One night he wheeled himself out of Leroy's house and down the street.

Bob was really happy until the road started going down hill. He started going fast and fast until he ran into the curb and was flung

from his wheel chair. He landed in the gutter and his wheel cahir was smashed to pieces.
April 26, 2010, 2:35 pm - [18]
Bob was very upset about this, especially since both his arms were broken and he couldn't move.
April 26, 2010, 2:37 pm - [19]
Right when Bob thought to himself that things couldn't get any worse it began to rain.
April 26, 2010, 2:39 pm - [20]
Bob laid on the street for several days and nights. It rained several times and his fur was now slimy gross. He doubted that any, not

even Leroy would be able to recognize him in this condition.
April 26, 2010, 2:41 pm - [22]
Bob did find something positive in his situation. He was facing the street so he could see a lot of activties that were happening.
April 26, 2010, 2:42 pm - [23]
He saw children playing; he saw teenagers smoking weed and drinking; he saw a young man help an old woman across the road; he saw a woman
April 26, 2010, 2:44 pm - [24]
slap a man across the face. He saw so many things and remembered them all.
April 26, 2010, 2:45 pm - [25]
He also heard many things. He heard screaming and laughing and crying. The only thing he would think was that
April 26, 2010, 2:47 pm - [26]
he wanted to wanted to participate in all the actvities he saw and heard instead of laying in a gutter.
April 26, 2010, 2:48 pm - [27]
He would come up scenarios for everything that he saw and heard in which he was participating in them.
April 26, 2010, 2:49 pm - [28]
This helped him pass the time and helped him from giving up comepletely.
April 26, 2010, 2:49 pm - [29]
Meanwhile, Leroy had been looking for Bob everywhere. He searched his house and when he couldn't find him there he drove around looking
April 26, 2010, 2:51 pm - [30]
for him. He had passed Bob several times without eveb realizing it.
April 26, 2010, 2:52 pm - [31]
He blamed himself and regretted making the wheel chair for Bob. However, he continued to hope that Bob was safe.
April 26, 2010, 2:53 pm - [32]
One day, Leroy decided to take a walk.
April 26, 2010, 2:54 pm - [33]
During his walk he suddenly heard a voice come up to him from the street calling his name.
April 26, 2010, 2:55 pm - [34]
Leroy looked down at the curb and saw a slimy glob of fur. He knew it was Bob right away, after all not many furry globs of fur can talk.
April 26, 2010, 2:56 pm - [35]
Leroy took Bob home and cleaned him, and they lived happily ever after.
