Young girl/ talented dancer is going blind.


We, recreational therapists provide services for a wide-range of people with various needs. I thought RTs who follow my blog might be interested in this story. I beleive that we, RTs, work in this field because we have empathy for people and we want to see people reach their highest potential in life.
Here is the story:

A young girl has rare condition that is going to cause her to go blind.

She is passionate about several things, including: dancing and music.

She has a teen idol, the pop music star Justin Beiber.

She wants to see him before she loses her sight.

She may have to go to a special school for children who are blind and may have to quit dancing.

I feel strong emotions for this little girl and wish the best for her.

She has several positive, motivational, and encouraging statements, which she gives during the end of this video.


I hope this girl gets a chance to meet her teen idol. More importantly, I hope for a cure for her vision and wish this girl the best.
