The eyeless boy and his journey to becoming an instrumentalist

Lacey Buchanan remembers the day she learned her son, Christian, was blind. She was so excited to become a mother, but now her world has been turned upside down. She is scаred about what the future holds for her son.


Christian was born with tiny eye sockets where his eyes should have been. He is completely blind. Lacey and her husband, Chris, were devastated. They didn’t know how to help their son.

At first, Lacey was afraid to take Christian out in public. She worried about what people would think. But then she realized she needed to show Christian the world, even if he couldn’t see it.

Lacey started taking Christian to the park, the library, and the zoo. She described everything to him in detail. She told him about the colors of flowers, the shapes of trees, and the sounds of animals.


Christian is a smart and eager to learn child. He likes to learn new things. Even though he is blind, he doesn’t let that stop him from living a full and happy life.

One day, Lacey was taking Christian to the park when a woman approached them. The woman asks Lacey why Christian doesn’t have eyes. Lacey explains that Christian is blind.

The woman looked at Christian with pity in her eyes. “I’m so sorry,” she said. “I wish there was something I could do.”

Lacey smiled. “There is one thing you can do,” she said. “You can treat Christian like a normal child. You can talk to him, play with him, and teach him about the world.”


The woman nodded. “I will,” she said.

Lacey watched the woman leave. She was proud of herself for standing up for her son. She knows that Christian will face challenges in life, but she is determined to help him overcome them.

Christian grew up to be a happy and successful man. He went to college and has a good job. He also got married and had children of his own.

Lacey is grateful for the life Christian has. She knows that he is a special gift. She also knows that there are many other disabled children who are just as special as him.
