Samuel is a great student. He over came a debilitating illness in his High school year. His blood sugar was 800. He became totally blind due to cataracts. Surgery finally improved his site. Blood sugar became normal. Went on to graduate. Became a pharmacist at age 23. Won an award for inpatient care. Earned 3 cords at graduation. Remarkable young man.
We are extremely proud of his accomplishments.
