I've been worried that I wasn't going to be able to write about being handicapped. I don't think of myself as being that way, I pretty much feel normal... whatever that is. I have been very low vision for quite a while now, and legally bind for a while now... but I don't feel different.
I do feel like I am having a hard time with being irritated with things I haven't figured out how to do yet. I don't know if I will ever be able to drive again, but I will figure out something.
I am kind of proud that I have been able to actually open up about being blind. I have hidden it for so long, but the past couple of years I have been telling people that I am having trouble with my vision.
Not that I tell them how much... or that I am really not able to see or function much.
I think it is time for me to let people in and let them know how it is that I am different, and to feel comfortable in that difference.
Wish me luck with this endeavor. It is painful and pleasurable all at the same time.
