As much as this is difficult for the family, Mpilo has worked really hard and remains an inspiration to both young and old people. He has not let his condition affect him in anyway, and does every activity you can think of including playing soccer, singing as well as playing musical instruments. The young champ recently started learning Braille at school, which is not an easy thing to do. Through persistence, he is finally getting it and took to social media to celebrate his milestone.
“I was learning braille at school today? I used to get frustrated because the dots are so small and would all feel the same but now, I’m getting it,” Mpilo said.
He continues to make his parents proud in a number of ways, and we are here for that. Keep shining Milo!
