up as a blind individual? </span><span style="line-height: 21.600000381469727px;">Did</span><span style="line-height: 21.600000381469727px;"> you lose your sight later in life? </span><span style="line-height: 21.600000381469727px;">What</span><span style="line-height: 21.600000381469727px;"> did
the adjustment process look like for you? </span>What trials, tribulations, lessons, and achievements did you experience? Blindness is rarely glamorous; share your story, the good and the bad.</div>
