Hi!
I am totally blind and have hearing in only one ear due to Meningitis when I was a baby. I work as a sportswriter for my local newspaper.
I am also a proud graduate of the Louisiana Center for the Blind. I loved Ruston. I hope to get back there sometime for a visit.
Welcome to the list! It's nice to meet you!
Kerri
