Hi! My boyfriend has been diagnosed with ushers syndrome about a year ago. Right now he can still see and hear, but he had been told that it will eventually get to the point where he will have tunnel vision. Somehow though, he has stayed positive through all these findings! He started last quarter of highschool with a braille tutor and a cane trainer during his studyhall period :) he thought he would never get anywhere in life and no one would want him and he never thought he would get into college. Today he got an acceptance letter from Wilmington University :) and i guess the moral of my little story is that you can still succeed even if things are going bad and you can still do the impossible. I hope ive somehow inspired someone and if not thats okay too :) i hope all of you have an amazing day, week, month, and year :)

How did he manage to stay positive despite the seemingly negative and depressing circumstances?

"It is going to be hard to get used to once it does happen, but right now im trying to focus on the better things in life and things i can still do rather than al the things i wont be able to do in the future. Its easier for me to learn about my disease and come to terms with it than to let it ruin my day everyday. Its something i cannot fix so im going to live my life to the fullest :)" ~him

Good luck. Suggest that he look into access services at school and skills training for getting around and accessible technology. Better to start learning about all that stuff sooner rather than later.
