Review of I've Seen That

This piece made me think about disability from a different perspective. "Wait a minute," I said to myself, "A blind kid in the Honor Guard? Throwing guns around? Sounds like a bad idea." But it wasn't and isn't. The guns may be heavy and sharp, but they're not loaded. And Alex's teammates can give him other cues so he knows when and where to catch and throw. So why not? A great piece about doing what you want to do in life regardless of the obstacles involved.
