The National Federation of the Blind knows that Blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future.
Every day we raise the expectations of Blind people because low expectations create obstacles between Blind people and our dreams;
You can live the life you want,
Blindness is not what holds you back.

Dear Lauren:

  I do not know you well, but perhaps you will remember me from the bus back from the convention in October.

  I am sorry to hear about your father.  I just lost my father in June and it is hard.  There is the aspect of no more relief from pain, but it is still very difficult, and you will be in my thoughts.

Sincerely, Jana Littrell
