Incredible story

[IBCrazier2]

Born without eyes and the ability to fully extend his limbs, Patrick Henry Hughes does not let his "disabilities" come between him and his passion for music.

Through his talent and his tenacity for life, Patrick shows us the strength of the human spirit against adversity.

He is a member of a university marching band in Louisville, Kentucky where his father pushes his wheelchair!

No not necessarily, I just said that they can often hear and feel better than your average.

It's a proven fact that when we loose one sense, the others make up the loss by becoming more sensative.
