"For now Dylan seems content to explore the world on his own. His little hands feeling along the kitchen wall, Dylan makes his way to the hall and to the gold knob on the closet door. He fumbles with this new discovery and hearing the click of the latch, pulls the door open. Giggles. He pushes it closed. Click. More laughs. For 15 minutes, he opens and shuts, hysterical laughter cutting through his darkness. Watching from the kitchen, Karen smiles as she realises her little bear cub is opening his own doors and becoming a little less helpless every day."

A heart-wrenching true life account. Dylan is born with microphthalmia(absent eyes).
