Have you ever thought what it would be like not to see? I hadn't really thought about it until my daughter Wendy asked me that very question. There she stood, two days after my father's death, telling me how proud she was of my decision to donate his eyes so another person could see.
Never in my wildest imagination would I have guessed that two weeks from that day I would be signing donor papers - once again. Only this time it was for her.
Through Her Eyes
by
Linda Rivers
From the time Wendy Rivers was a small child, whenever she wanted something, it just happened. Her every dream became a reality. Miracle after miracle began to manifest. Wendy's special love for horses was the inspiration for the development of an innovative rehabilitation program for children with disabilities.
Her interest in the visually impaired led to the magical events of this story. Wendy was killed at the age of 14. Yet what she left behind in her short life has become a legacy; she continues to touch others and to make a difference.
A moving, compelling story of one little girl that inspires readers to be all they can be. It offers a sense of self-worth and teaches that no matter how young or old you are, you too can make a difference.
