The book Blind by Rachel Dewoskin, gives you the opportunity to read about the experience of another. In the book Emma suffers from an accident where a fun celebration turns into a never ending dark, nightmare. Emma & her father were celebrating the fourth or July watching fire works close, but a little to close. Unfortunately, Emma had been hit with one of the fireworks that had been lit, and not only feel then pain among her face, but losing her sight. " Where am I?" " What is - Take this off!"she said to herself as she laid in the hospital bed the following day. Not being able to see her parents but hear them say " you're awake; Emma you're okay, youre, Emma. Emma. Emma". From then on "progress" was what she was doing. Attempting to go back to school, adapt to the many changes that had came her way due to this incident. With the help of her parents, siblings and her friends she over time is able to accept and adapt. Not giving up would just be a plain simple theme, so all in all the message I was able to get from this story was even though times get rough, to keep trying & with time things can fall into place with your effort and the help of others. Without Emma's parents or family & close friends, Emma would've just gotten angry with herself and always questioning herself why that incident has happened to HER, but she didn't. So Emma became her own person, and was also able to find herself again.
