Blair Best authored an article about Dani Hillenbrand that included the following.
"Last year, while she was already in nursing school, Hillenbrand suffered a catastrophic medical event that left her in a wheelchair. While many would be discouraged, Hillenbrand said it pushed her to work even harder.
“When it comes to what I do and what I know I can do, it’s
not challenging — the challenges that I do face are imposed by society, and
assumptions made about disabled people,” she said."
Hillenbrand has this message for other wheelchair users
looking to get into healthcare:
“You can’t let your advocacy for yourself waver. You have to
know that you’re going to have to advocate really hard for yourself throughout
all of it.”
