The name of the book is "A Christmas Carol", unless you meant that Scrooge was in a wheelchair. As far as I remember, he wasn't, and the closest thing to it was Tiny Tim, who had crutches. As far as I know he didn't get a wheelchair at the end, but Dickens did base the character of Tiny Tim on his disabled nephew Henry who was 5 at the time. It's a minor thing, not sure if that'd be the worthy origin of the wheelchair, but I'll look to see if wheelchairs were around or prevalent at the time the story was written.
