                    [Summary] => The debate has perhaps simmered down, but is far from over. Perhaps history will never be resolved regarding who was the first Filipino to reach the summit of Mount Everest. But here is a story that may perhaps give us a different perspective on the matter.


When Erik Weihenmayer was six years old, he was diagnosed with retinoscheses, a disorder which doctors said would gradually destroy the retinas of his eyes, rendering him completely blind. He grew up not knowing the privilege of eyesight would not be his for long. By age 13, he went totally blind.

Subalit, lingid sa kaalaman ng marami, may isang natatanging indibidwal na nauna na sa kanila ng limang taon.

Paano siya naging espesyal?Siya ay bulag.
