From what I have read I am not sure if these children have other problems or are only deaf/blind. I work with a young man who is deaf/blind and is 14. This morning he just wrestled in his first ever wrestling match in our middle school program, he won. He would be a great inspiration for this mother as he leaves everyone he meets a better person. He is smart and clever in spite of his challenges. He is supported by a wonderful father, sisters, grandpa, and an angel of a grandma who works very hard to help him succeed. This young man is who he is because of his blind/deafness and he is a wonderful person who makes us all better people just to have known him. Good luck to this mom and remember to find people who have experienced this for your support and encouragement. Cindy
