For Lulua to get to this point, it was no easy feat. He survived residential school and a near-fatal, train-pedestrian collision in which he lost his right arm and several fingers on his left hand. “That was a direct result of alcohol and drug addiction. which came from me not dealing with what happened to me in residential school,” Lulua said. “I’ve since dealt with that, and it’s all in my past now.” “I have to move forward; otherwise, I wouldn’t love what I do now,” he said of riding his motorcycle, playing and coaching basketball, hunting and fishing.”
