Teen Born without Limbs Already Has Sights for Political Office
17-year-old Edgar Pacheco was born without arms or legs, but his disability has never hindered his academic accomplishments or his dreams. He is interning for a U.S. Congressman this summer and hopes to go to law school in Washington, D.C. and possibly even run for office one day. He says he wants to live his life serving others and giving back to the community. Edgar tells us he navigates through long writing assignments with a program called Dragon Natural Speaking and uses a Starbucks straw to type on the computer.
