The first blind person I ever met was my first born son. The second one was my 2nd son. I went from hopeless to being honored as the Champion of Hope, and am now known globally for changing the worldβs perception of blindness & accelerating access to the tools blind people need to succeed without sight.
And my boys? My oldest is in the top 1% of 75K students at Penn State. My younger one is top 3% of all high school seniors in USA. They, and their sighted sister, are achieving more than I ever dreamed!π₯
