Legally blind, 14-year-old Nick DiCarlo now embraces the sport he once feared.
Nick DiCarlo sits in the center of adolescence, a place where self-consciousness is a way of life, a place where being different feels like a death sentence.
Nick hates to admit it, but he’s different.
Unmistakably, undeniably different.
He can watch television, but has to sit two feet from the screen. He can read, but has to hold the book inches from his eyes. He can hit a baseball, but it can take 30 swings.
The 14-year-old from Dalton says his eyesight is normal.
Doctors say he’s legally blind.
