The Blind History Lady Presents; James Woodlee - Chiropractor From New Mexico (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Blinded as a child, sent to a school for the blind and losing his father at an early age might have narrowed the prospects for many young men. But not Woodlee. Leaving his home state of Tennessee, Woodlee left for Iowa and then New Mexico where he set up a small chiropractic business that soon thrived. As a blind man, he wanted access to the same options as his fellow sighted doctors, but it was up to him to find the way.
