Katrina Placzek, a mother of four, posted a vlog on YouTube of her 8-year-old daughter, Dallas, using a special pool-friendly wheelchair at a wheelchair-accessible vacation home in Chuluota, Florida, US, about 22 miles east of Orlando. In a related Instagram post she wrote: "Have you ever seen an aquatic wheelchair at an accessible pool?" Dallas was born premature, at 28 weeks, and has quadriplegic spastic cerebral palsy, which affects her arms and legs and makes it hard for her to walk. The condition requires Dallas to navigate the world in a different way, which Placzek hopes to shine a light on through social media.
