A paraplegic can live a normal lifespan, often comparable to that of able-bodied individuals, depending on various factors such as the cause of paralysis, overall health, access to medical care, and lifestyle choices. With advancements in medical technology and rehabilitation, many paraplegics lead fulfilling lives.
