George Sanchez is blind, but now, after passing his test this month, the 47-year-old is also a black belt in karate.
The Conn. resident tried to get involved in karate programs a few times in the past, but no one would train a blind man. But Carrie Waskowicz, his instructor of four years, said, “Just because you are blind doesn’t mean you can’t defend yourself.”
