FURUBODA 080702 Mikael's wife Christina helps Michael to get to his wheelchair after a ride on a four-wheeler during a camp for disabled people, which Mikael is one of the leaders of, in Furuboda, Sweden. -----------------------Mikael Andersson was born without arms and legs. Despite his disability Mikael has learned to do things that others take for granted such as walking, swimming and driving a car. As a child he was told by doctors that he would be in a hospital for the rest of his life, and that he would never learn to sit up by himself. Michael is a successful lecturer and travels throughout the Nordic countries to inspire other people that most things are possible. When he is not working, he lives a normal life with his wife Christina and their three children, Simon, Linus and Sara in Gothenburg, Sweden.
