[blparent] Introduction

[Brandy with Discovery Toys]

Hello and welcome. You can definitely make it all work, blind people do it
all the time. I'm a foster parent to a 3 month old who I got at 6 days old.
I also run a licenced childcare home with 6 kids at my fullest. I started
caring for kids when I was 11, and I'm 34, so I have a tun of experience
mostly good. This list is an amazing resource.

Hi Marley,

I have cone-rod dystrophy too. I have a feeling we will be running into a
lot of the same issues and questions. Feel free to contact me off list if
you ever want to chat.
