Robin,
ReplyDeleteYou are a wonderful person and great at what you do ...My son went blind in his late twenties and had some contact with one of your girls that attended the camp and I know she enjoyed it. Just want you to know how I feel from what short time Brian was involved in trying to raise money for her to attend. This was done a few years back..the EYE ROC in Fonda, NY when he drove a car and did so being completely blind with a co-driver. Wish it didn't end as he looked so forward to this activity. Enjoyment for him and beneficial for a child at the same time...Again thank you for being you..Sharon
