My mother called me yesterday crying and upset. My oldest niece just had a baby and found out he is going to be blind. I’m not one of those people that believe everyone should be like a book of stamps “exactly a like and perfect”. God made everyone different for a reason and it’s ok to have a disability. There are programs and schools available for the disabled. That’s what I told her. I told her my niece needs to focus on getting a better job so she can get private insurance for her child. The job she works now does not offer insurance for her position.
