My Journey

I'm not Handicapped, I'm Handicapable.
(and no i didnt get that from due date lol)

I left home and drove from nj to california in search of an independent life and safe access to my medicine* so i can live. It's been an interesting journey, lots of ups, lots of downs, and even though I am now weaker than ever...nothing will ever stop me from living my dream, regardless of how long I get to live.

Life is too precious and short to waste time. And I'm Ready.

The three videos below are before and after i left nj, an interview with the Washington Post during my road trip, some audition, and one other one hahaha idk i didnt set up the web site, im kinda lost there :P below that are blog entries! thank you!

Feel free to contact me at all times: mike@mikeywheels.com


Help to save Mikey's life

As you know, Mikey has always been able to smile through the pain, no matter what, until recently. The pain in his stomach is now worse than ever and has led to an inability to eat, causing rapid weight loss. At 6'1", he's a meager 75 lbs and dropping fast. It's getting more difficult for Mikey to smile through the pain and fear.

One of the only places where Mikey can get help is the MAYO clinic in Minnesota. There, a team of specialized doctors will work together to figure out how his illnesses affect each other and can be treated to restore health and balance to his body so he can keep living his incredible life.

All of this obviously comes with a large amount of costs, which can only be covered with the help and donations of as many people as possible – even if it's just a dollar. Please click on one of the two following links to access the crowd funding campaigns that will help Mikey get better. Thank you!

Ahoy There!

This is the first time i have been online to do anything, or just be on a computer in days! I haven't even logged into facebook to get back into the swing of things, or even check my mail (besides on my phone..which i seem to strangely not have time for). Also this might be the last time i can "borrow" my neighbors internet (officially locked out) funny huh?? the first time i go on in days is now the day i am locked out for good. Life throws some goodies at me :) i do apologize however i have been a busy busy bee!

Its funny, when my world around me was busy, and i was not... at all, nobody (in my life) was too concerned with what i was up to, and now i can't tell you how many people are pissed off at me, for what? not being around as much as i was, or not being able to talk as much as we did. AKA: me having a life, a life that i love, and also one that means i maybe can't be around as often as someone would like. And its not just what that someone wants, its most likely what i want too!!!!! BUUUT there is not enough time in the world, and as much as i would like to spend as much time as possible with whoever im chillin with or talking to, it is impossible...without that time rewind necklace thingy the chick from Harry Potter had... which is not real, SO!!! There is That! Whats even cooler, is that besides my friends being upset with me for my lack of presence, i also have all the amazing people in my life who do nothing but express thier love and support for me following my heart, they are beyond happy for me, and proud of me :) which even tho i don't think i did much, is nice to hear from loved ones <3 mwah!!!!! thank you all for your support, i didnt think much of anything when i started this site with my friend Travis' help (i have no clue how to rum a website) long ago, and now its gone around the world, so thank YOU (everyone) for following the journey and for telling other people about it (its amazing how much love is everywhere) for being a part of so far my favorite time of being alive :)

I recieved Some Mail! Devo, i LOVE YOU soooo much, your card is amazing, you are my official unofficial sis and im lucky to have you! You are awesome <3

And i would also like to thank Angela, thank you so much for your gift, every penny (you were more than generous...you didnt have to but, thank you endlessly) helps a ton! Especially in this economic struggle, I don't take any support lightly, its not easy to give away money one needs. The fact that Angela, and Jessica, Tom, and the incredible list of everyone else who also helped me out but can't name because my computer is dying and its loong, is still hard to believe even tho its true, and im the one who recieved thier love!!! I'm so very lucky.

And thank you Lutz, you have always been like a father to me. Thank you for everything you have ever done for me. I appreciate it all so much. Thank you

i just got help from my neighbor to use the bathrooom, thank you Joseph! (Mike 1 Gravity 0) :P
and now its so very late and i have much to do tomorrow! (like find internet) and i have more video from my trip to jersey to come (for those who watch haha) like i said before, its never been about numbers, i couldnt care less how many views the video's i have put out get, this site and those video's are there for whoever wants to watch, for whatever reason haha, im honored anyone has interest in any of them, or my blog for that matter, i had no expectations for this site, and its brought me nothing but beauty. Im happy one person looked at it, haha i dont even know how many hits it has (can't figure it out) nor do i care lol besides there are much better websites out there!!

Happy March!! (birthday in 12 days) Maria is Playin in 8!!! more info to come..
