Join us on this heartfelt episode of Through Our Eyes by the Pediatric Retinal Research Foundation, where Megan, a devoted mother, shares her journey raising her visually impaired son, David. Diagnosed with a rare pediatric retinal condition at six weeks old, David faced significant challenges, but with the support of an exceptional Teacher of the Visually Impaired (TVI), an inclusive school, and a tailored Individualized Education Program (IEP), he’s thriving in first grade. From learning Braille to playing goalball with classmates, David’s story highlights resilience, advocacy, and the power of community in ensuring every child can succeed. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about navigating school life, fostering inclusivity, and empowering children with visual impairments.
