Visually Impared & Amputee from IED

When I first arrived at Operation Adventure, I was nervous and hesitant, because I was the only blind guy there.  But Jen Armbruster, one of Lakeshore's staff members who is also blind, teamed up with me.  I made a deal with her - that I'd try anything that she'd do, so pretty much we did it all.

I know I've got something I've got to live with for the rest of my life, but Operation Adventure has shown me there are lots of exciting new options to try- things I never thought about.
