This is the heartwarming moment a paralyzed 1-year-old boy learned to use his wheelchair for the very first time.
Wyatt Banks, unable to move below his chest because of a rare auto-immune disease that damaged his spinal cord, is seen confidently spinning himself around his hospital ward.

Wyatt has regained the use of his shoulders, arms and hands after being paralyzed by transverse myelitis.
