His exwife is a female dog! What better man deep down inside is ‘better’ than Steven Murray? Biotch! Stay strong Murray and do not give up. Do not worry about your exwife…she was stupid to say goodbye to you even under your condition.

irony and sarcasm of life, I study kinesiology and i have seen how your average fat fucker grease-eating-seat-warming citizen goes off to the next life in his sleep, without any pain or hurt after 45 years of eating shit and solely watching soccer instead of actually doing any sport, due to a vascular accident. and those who do apreciate life and go out every day to just make the best of it end up on a wheel chair before their 30s, and i’m not talking only about stephen (close friends too).
I always go ride protected, full padding, full face, etc, not because i’m afraid of pain, or breaking a bone, but i think sometimes if anything ever happens to me and i’m not able to ride or play an instrument ever again that will just be the end of it all.
Take care my brothers.

Wow. What an amazing individual. It takes a strong guy to sit in that chair and talk about it the way he does. Doesnt let the chair stop him and he keeps truckin. Supports his kids in there riding. Stay Strong stephen! you inspire me and the millions of others that ride bmx. Your story should inspire any person out there. So STAY STRONG!

I am just amazed at how Stephen fights, the spead at which he recovers, even as small as it seems is just amazing, he is a true warrior! It’s when I hear a story like this, that, even though some days you just feel like it isn’t right, that you’re not going anywhere on that bike and that you just feel like letting go, you just think of how he can’t even bike anymore and that now he’S fighting to simply walk and that he dreams of getting on two wheels again that you get that rush that keeps us going strong.
All my wishes to Stephen and his family, and I really do hope some day you walk again, it would be the greatest day in BMX, that, I am sure of.
