What an awesome story Vasant. Having two blind children (twins) myself and their daily fight for independence, I marvel at Ashish Goyal.
My kids use the same software and at the same speed. I cannot understand the speech, it is too fast, but they function well with it. The boy is set to study law. He is a well motivated and a great debater. In his discussions with me, I always take the opposite side, but he outshines my arguments. If he does get into Law, he will make an excellent career of it. The girl is compassionate but bold. She too knows what she wants and that is a career in Social Sciences. Canada has given them the opportunity to do all this. Sorry for talking about my own, but Ashish is an inspiration.
