Wheelchair bound couple raise twins

[Cass]

Spend a few days with Stuart and Rebecca Klein — he's quadriplegic, she's paraplegic — and they'll nearly have you convinced that their biggest challenge as parents of infant twins will be reducing the speed on their motorized wheelchairs, as they have vowed to each other they will, once the boys start to crawl.



"The speed of the wheelchair will be on low always," promises Stuart. "If we want to back up, we'll have to call out to each other and ask [where the twins are]."



The notion that they might have to slow themselves down a bit — they're practicing now to get used to the idea — reflects the Kleins' world view. They take their challenges in stride, despite the hurdles they face just getting up and dressed, let alone taking care of their fraternal twins Yaakov Aryeh and Yosef Netanel born in July.



Call Rebecca, 27, on the phone and suggest "You must be busy," and she replies, "Yes, thank God."
