Watch this YouTube video of the story of a remarkable young man who, with the help of his parents, determined that being blind and crippled would not stop him from having a magnificent life.

<P>Patrick Hughes is a young man at the Univ. of Louisville who was born blind and crippled and yet now plays the piano beautifully as well as “marches” in the Louisville marching band. His Mom and Dad saw his potential early in his life and helped him live his possibilities, instead of impossibilities. It’s an inspirational story to remember, about how his parents helped Patrick turn his life’s lemons into sweet lemonade.</p> <P></p> <DIV class="bjtags">Tags:  <A href="http://technorati.com/tag/Patrick+Hughes" rel="tag">Patrick+Hughes</A>, <A href="http://technorati.com/tag/Univ.+of+Louisville" rel="tag">Univ.+of+Louisville</A>, <A href="http://technorati.com/tag/inspiration" rel="tag">inspiration</A>, <A href="http://technorati.com/tag/born+blind+&+crippled" rel="tag">born+blind+&+crippled</A>, <A href="http://technorati.com/tag/living+one's+possibilities" rel="tag">living+one’s+possibilities</A></DIV>
