July 17 - Amazing Race Canada

Have you been following this season of CTV’s Amazing Race Canada?  We have watched the series since the beginning but this year we have watched with special interest. One of the contestants is legally blind.  Lowell has retinas pigmentosa. He has no peripheral vision, reduced central vision and no vision in low light.  His sight will gradually decrease. In spite of his vision impairment, Lowell loves sports and is enthusiastic about travel. That is one of the reasons he and his wife, Julie, applied to compete in the amazing Race Canada. Lowell is an inspiration to others  who  cope with not just a vision impairment, but with any sort of disability.
