Not even the doctor knew how Lee Arnold was still alive.

In 1993, he was in a work accident that almost killed him. But Arnold survived, and he visited the WBOI studios to talk about life in a wheelchair.

In this extended interview, WBOI’s Lisa Ryan speaks with Arnold about the changes he’s had to make in his life since he was paralyzed. She starts the conversation by asking about the accident that caused it to happen. 

This story is part of WBOI's series, "One in Five," examining what's changed - and what hasn't - 25 years after the ADA became law.
