"Enjoy Your Ride " - Tasha Schuh

​

Just days before her opening night performance in The Wizard of Oz, 16-year-old Tasha Schuh took one step backward and fell 16 feet through an open trap door on stage. She landed on a concrete floor – breaking her neck, crushing her spinal cord and fracturing her skull. She would never walk again.

​

Today, Tasha has learned to live life to its fullest, and she is an inspirational speaker and author. Tasha was honored as Ms. Wheelchair USA and she was the 2012 recipient of the National Rehabilitation Champion Award, among receiving numerous other recognitions over the years. She lives in Ellsworth, WI with her husband Doug Michaels, a former TV meteorologist from Eau Claire.
