He became a paraplegic while working on a farm with his father. He was sitting underneath a slasher and changing the blades; the hydraulics broke and the slasher collapsed on him. His father pulled him out, and played a major role in his rehabilitation, encouraging him back into driving tractors on the farm.[1] After the accident, Lewis taught himself to ski and play lawn bowls.[1] He won a silver medal in the men's lawn bowls pairs with Ken Moran at the 1984 New York/Stoke Mandeville Paralympics.[2][3] Lewis and his wife Carol run a {{convert|1600|ha|adj=on}} sheep and cattle property and a bed and breakfast lodge called Ruth's House near Tatong in Victoria.[1][4] He is a Life Member of the Tatong Football Netball Club.[5] References1. ^1 2 {{cite news|last=van Tiggelen|first=John|title=Two of us|url=http://newsstore.fairfax.com.au/apps/viewDocument.ac?docID=SMH04082815BFG7LQ37Q|accessdate=10 December 2012|newspaper=Sydney Morning Herald|date=28 August 2004}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Lewis, Wayne}}{{Australia-bowls-bio-stub}}{{Australia-Paralympic-medalist-stub}}2. ^{{IPC profile|surname=Lewis|npc=aus|gender=m}}.
