Last chance to nominate your best dad

There is just one day left to nominate that awesome dad you to be named the 2010 Best Dad on Wheels! Nominations for our summer long search end tomorrow so be sure to enter your dad, or any other dad you know who is living with paralysis, into our contest.
I’ve had the pleasure to read a handful of the entries thus far and am truly amazed at not only the dedication dads have, but the desire of the people nominating them to tell their story.
Here's part of an entry that came in about dad of four, Paul Mahoney (pictured).
He seems small in his wheelchair, but my Dad is a giant. I have never seen him walk because he broke his neck in an accident at 21, yet I look up to him as a great father, trial attorney, and community leader who mentors other accident victims.
Watching him, I have learned respect for all people, and I have learned about faith and perseverance. Because I was four when he finished law school, I saw him build his own law practice by taking difficult cases for injured clients who often had nothing.
Wh not tell the world about the amazing dad on wheels you know? Time is running out, get your entries in! And good luck!
