<div>Hi Nancy, </div>
<div>Your letter is touching. You have one more daughter than I do. I am a new member of the NFB Central chapter. I have had vision issues since birth but with glasses, contac lenses and surgery I saw well enough to do most anything. It was not until about a year and a half ago that things got much worse. I now only have good vision in the center of one eye. That said my world is still a visual world. I just have distortion, lighting issues and tire quicker than some people. Joining NFB has made a huge impact on my life. I realize that life can be completely full without any sight. It is awesome to learn how much more important a person's grit and determination are far more important than vision. I hope as time goes on I can be more of a help to my fellow federationists as they all are to me.
