I'm Walking for a Wish!
This September, I'll be raising money for Make-A-Wish Australia by walking for 12 hours straight on a 3.7KM loop on the Gold Coast.I know all about putting one foot in front of the other to keep going.
Two separate freak accidents left me blind. The first was when I was 13 and hit myself in my left eye with pliers while trying to pull a nail out of a fence.
Then, at 27, I was blinded in his right eye by an errant golf ball.
After the second incident, I was initially in a rut for about a year.
Stuff just happens and makes life interesting. It was difficult for myself and my wife, but you have to push through and keep going.
Now, because I lost my sight and I don't work, I like to contribute to society by raising money for charities.
Make-A-Wish Australia plays an important role for parents who can't afford to give their sick kids what they wish for.
