Read why "finding a way" is in Mike May's DNA. As seen on CBS Sunday Morning, coming soon on 20-20, NPR, in the NY Times, Wall Street Journal, BBC, USA Today, People Magazine, and a Fox 2000 movie to follow. Mike May spent his life crashing through. Blinded at age three, he defied expectations by breaking world records in downhill speed skiing, joining the CIA, and becoming a successful inventor, entrepreneur, and family man. He had never yearned for vision. Then, in 1999, a chance encounter brought startling news: a revolutionary stem cell transplant surgery could restore May's vision. It would allow him to drive, to read, to see his children's faces. He began to contemplate an astonishing new world: Would music still sound the same? Would sex be different? Would he recognize himself in the mirror? Would his marriage survive? Would he still be Mike May? There were countless reasons for May to pass on vision. He could think of only a single reason to go forward. Whatever his decision, he knew it would change his life. "Crashing Through - A true Story of Risk, Adventure, and the Man Who Dared to See," a book by Robert Kurson gives us a fascinating account of one man's choice to explore what it means to see, and to truly live.
