Episode: Get Off Your Knees

John Robinson was born a congenital amputee, yet through his remarkable tenacity, talent and faith, he has succeeded in business and in building a family in a way that few may have expected from the outset. John's story teaches those of us with and without disabilities that, with the aid of a strong education and a few caring individuals, we can achieve that which may initially seem impossible.
