Noel Mudibo, 29, has had a childhood dotted with several health challenges. At the age of two, he had to have intestinal surgery. And as the doctors were doing preliminary examinations, they discovered that his eyes were not quite right. He needed to get them treated immediately, but due to financial constraints, his parents let that slide, instead, focusing on the bigger health issues he had. This decision would lead to Noel having challenges when it came to reading and writing.
