I believe it should be within the same range as others in your family. However those who are wheelchair bound often die of kidney failure largely because of the lack of mobility and the difficulty accessing washrooms, just holding back too long.

It is only logical to conclude that those severly immobilized will have their organs/systems deteriorate at a higher rate than the mobile, who exercise. From this you can logically conclude that their life span is reduce by at least 5-10 years, depending on the trauma, or disease which caused their immobility.
