The Beauty in Life: Living with a Chronic Medical Condition

Del Negro & Senft Eye Associates will be attending this event as part of the Resource Fair.
Guest Speaker, Scott MacIntyre
Scott MacIntyre is an acclaimed speaker, singersongwriter, scholar, and author. Since his introduction into the public eye as the first blind finalist on American Idol, he has inspired audiences on overcoming adversity, motivation, and the importance of education.
Born blind, Scott knows what it means to persevere despite seemingly insurmountable obstacles. At 19 years old, he was diagnosed with stage-four kidney failure, but received a transplant that saved his life. Less than a year later, he ended up on one of the biggest stages in the world – American Idol. Scott’s heartfelt songs and powerful voice take his audiences on an emotional journey of hardship and hope, entreating listeners that no matter what life brings their way, life is always worth living to the fullest.
Scott will share his message of hope and three secrets to living a fulfilling life amidst incredible adversity. The NJ Sharing Network will discuss the benefits of organ donation and transplantation.
