Sara Claudia Cain provided a very inspirational program for the Carrollton Kiwanis Club on Friday, January 20, 2023 in UWG's Hubbard Dining Room. Oxygen deprivation to the optic nerve during what would have been a routine tonsil surgery left her totally blind in both eyes also deaf in one ear.
Sara has proven herself to be a phenomenal overcomer after waking up from surgery with no eyesight. She has written three books, completed a University degree, speaks on a radio show, and married, and proves that nothing is impossible with God's help.
