Gabe is learning new ways to compensate for his blurry vision. At baseball practice last Tuesday, he got his very 1st hit of the season which literally brought tears to my eyes! He timed the pitches and to him it felt as if he were swinging early, but in reality it was just right. I was so happy for him that we went to Baskin Robbins to celebrate! This was a huge accomplishment for him, as striking out had become very discouraging.
Also, found out that one can buy beeping baseballs to help sight impaired kids enjoy playing catch!

On a similar note, we spoke to Gabe's Sensei at Karate and were able to agree on individual kata but no modified sparring due to safety concerns. They were also kind enough to waive the annual dojo membership fee for us.
