Sixteen-year-old Gabriel Sirr has been struggling to see since he was a baby...

When he turned a year old, doctors diagnosed him with Wagr syndrome - a rare genetic disorder that left him legally blind..No there is a new pair of glasses that could help change that.

The glasses developed by e-Sight a Toronto-based company give legally blind people a chance to see. Gabriel had a chance to try them out and knew they were something he had to have, the only problem is the glasses are 10 thousand dollars.

Like most families these glasses are out of their price range, so a GoFundMe page was set up as a way to ease the cost...

Gabriel says his number one goal is to work on the board at school because he has never been able to before.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
