True Grit

The Amazing Moving Story of

Patrick Henry Hughes


Oh A Trouble is a Ton
Or A Trouble is an Ounce
A Trouble is What You Make It

And It's Not That Fact That Your Hurt That Counts
But Only How You Take It


True Grit was Written by Max O'Neill June 2010

Patrick Hughes, overcoming, fathers day, great dad, blind, crippled

Born Without Eyes

He Sees More Than Most


Completely Crippled

He Moves The World Around Him

More Than A Fit Soul Could Dream



When Things Don't Go As YOU Planned

Look For God's Leading in Your Life


Patrick Henry Hughes was born March 10, 1988 with serious physical anomalies. He was diagnosed as bilateral anophthalmia with pterygium syndrome and congenital bilateral hip dysplasia.

His Dad... Patrick John Hughes, not willing to give up on his son,  introduced his boy to the piano at the age of nine months. Patrick has been a wiz at the piano from the get go and later took up the trumpet.

Patrick Henry came to national fame in 2006 while studing at the University of Louisville. With the encouragement of Louisville's marching band director, Dr. Greg Byrne, Patrick Henry joined the Louisville Marching Band. Patrick Played... his Dad pushed him in his wheelchair through the marching routines. This amazing commitment attracted media attention throughout the fall football season, and the pair of Patricks were featured in a number of television and newspaper articles. Patrick Henry has since been invited to play piano and sing in musical performances around the country. He did 2 great performances at the Grand Ole Opry, and onstage performances with Pam Tillis, Lonestar, Lane Brody, Chad Brock, Faith Hill, and Bryan White.

The Huges Family is an amazing example of  facing life's obstacles and fighting through too victory. There is a great lesson there for us all!
