Default Double standards for people with medical hardships?

Not sure how everyone else feels but to me this young man gets a lot of publicity.
I feel for the young man by what happened to him and his team mates.

Seems the News people can not leave this guy alone, by what he all gets, his home got all fixed up so he can move around from top to bottom floors, got send across country , and abroad for treatment. Why is this guy so special? And gets all these hand outs.
My brother broke his back 20 years ago while at work, he just got married 3 weeks prior and he has to make it all on his own, the Government will only give him a new wheelchair every 5 years. And after 5 years his chair is finished.
He has never been down his basement as it would cost him an extra 30k to put in a chair lift.
To me there are so many people with disabilities and have to try to make it on their own, and Ryan gets it all.

Also with this Humbold bus crash what if it was a bus of seniors ?

Just a bit frustrating.
