Although at first glance it would seem unlikely, Ashton Dunford has no limits. The 10-year-old is blind from birth, and yet, he has done all of the same things—perhaps even more—than most kids his age.
Ashton, who is Tyler and Hilda Dunford’s second of three children, does not see the limits that could hold him back.
Instead, he rides bicycles, skis downhill, and dreams of future accomplishments such as becoming a writer, a marine biologist, and a downhill skier in the Paralympics. At his young age, he has already learned to play the piano, performed in a children’s choir, auditioned for movies and television, and won awards for writing in Braille. And every feat, every milestone passed along the way, has been an inspiration to others—perhaps most of all, to his mother.
