Reid Richard was born without tibia bones in his lower legs. His parents faced a tough decision for their son: either have metal rods implanted repeatedly as he grew up, or proceed with amputation. They ultimately chose amputation, and Richard says that was the right choice. Eventually, Richard discovered wheelchair basketball, and went on to play at an elite level. Now, he’s transitioned to coaching the next generation. He’s featured in a new video for the CBC Creator Network by Regina based filmmaker, RC Equina.
