Samantha is from Canada and has the most modern technology at her service helping her cope with her physical problems. She has three wheelchairs; one is computer-controlled with a battery-powered electrical engine: by pushing her head against a joystick she is learning to drive it herself.
Hasina lives in Bangladesh and her family is so poor they cannot even provide her with a simple seat of wheels. She depends on her sister Nasima when she wants to move, for example to go to school.
