About this listen
In this powerful episode of The Wheelchair Roundtable, we pull up a seat with Danny Flores, a resilient force from right here in the Rio Grande Valley. Danny shares the raw, unfiltered story of the day everything changed—a C5/C6 incomplete spinal cord injury that rewired his body but never touched his spirit.
We talk about what it means to wake up in a new body, the mental mountain that follows the physical one, and the rehab trenches that test you in ways no one prepares you for. From moments of doubt to flashes of pure strength, Danny opens up about life after the injury—and what keeps him rolling forward.
This isn’t just a story about survival. It’s about reinvention, community, and crushing the stigma that comes with a wheelchair. Whether you're an ally, a clinician, or rolling this road yourself, Danny’s journey will hit home.
