Oh, and Billy happens to be deaf-blind as a result of Norrie’s Disease. He was born totally blind with a progressive hearing loss.

Billy  and his mom, dad and sister, Hazel, live in North Carolina. His mom, Debra, became a member of NFADB in order to obtain information and resources for Billy and her family.
