This is a double recovery image. The man on the left has been in a wheelchair since Nov. when the police allegedly* abused him in the Occupy evictions. He is slowly recovering but still cannot walk.
He brought the flowers to the woman a 75 year old "Grateful Great Grandmother" as she calls herself. She traveled three days on the bus with her walker to protest NATO in Chicago. The Chicago police allegedly* took her walker from her at the demonstration and forced her into an ambulance despite there being no medical issues. She lost everything she had with her and had to travel back without her walker, as it was never returned.
This image was taken at her 75th birthday party in a park where we gave her the $400 we collected to buy her a new walker and help replace her belongings.
*I use these terms but have been told what really happened by others.
