What ever happened to Barbie's wheelchair using friend, Share-a-Smile Becky?

Mattel refused to make all the mansions wheelchair accessible so Becky could visit. They also didn't think too many little girls wanted to own a pink wheelchair accessible van for their dolls to "cruise" in. Mattel sent messeges to handicapped kids everywhere that they just aren't cool enough and worth enough time and money for a huge, rich company like Mattel to properly acknowledge them as being equal to cooler people who can walk.
