ليتيسيا فارس: المهمّ ليس ما تراه العينان بل ما يراه القلب

Catholic Intelligence1 min read

Letitia Farès shared how she manages life with vision loss after a childhood tumor affected her optic nerve. Farès told ACI MENA that doctors discovered the tumor late, leading to surgery and a partial loss of sight that left her with 10 to 20 percent vision in one eye.

Farès attended the Lebanese School for the Blind and Deaf starting at age six. She said her faith in Jesus helped her overcome social limitations and find strength in her daily life. She noted that she draws courage from God's presence and looks to Saint Charbel for intercession.

Farès encouraged those experiencing suffering to pray and rely on the mercy of Jesus rather than giving in to hardship. She expressed gratitude for her family and the people she met during her schooling.
