Things seemed always to go for   41   . Two years ago, his beloved guide dog pulled him out of the path of a truck. David was not  42  . The dog died.

He has to make a daily two-hour trip to his working place—the X-ray department of an  44   room. It was a hard job to 45 by.

He wanted a job of developing X-ray film, a job   47   everyone, not just he, must work in the dark, including those with  48  eyesight. The Lighthouse called many hospitals, with no result,   49  they offered to pay his first three months’ salary.

He makes $20,000 a year. But his motivation goes   53  money. “By working I can realize my own   54  . That’s what really counts!” he said.
