A Whole New World

Hey Everyone,I'm so sorry I haven't updated in a long time. It's been pretty busy latley with school and riding horses. I still have been having improvments. We also just did a follow up on Channel 4. They wanted to do a head story because Oboma waved the law that restricted stemcell research:) some of the improvments I've had is now I am actually DRIVING:) I got my permit 3 days after my birthday. TALK ABOUT A DREAM COME TRUE! my vision has improved from 20/200 to 20/80 in my right eye and in my left i went from very little light perseption to 20/2100 which is pretty good. When we went to the Dr to see if i could drive I read the very top row of the reading chart about 3 feet away from my face. Mom started crying and I'll admit I got pretty teary eyed to. Driving has been going well we've just been driving arround the neighborhood and stuff but i'm able to see the signs and lines stuff like that. It's a little nerve racking for mom and dad when they let me drive:) Another cool thing is that is happening is mom and I are going to Florida to speak at a medical converence about stem cells and they want mom and i to talk. It should be fun. Well I will try to update more when I see more improvments and such. BYE:)
