Good afternoon, my friends,
Welcome to October, when the pumpkins are in style, and the
PSLs(pumpkin spice lattes) seem to be taking over the coffee market.
:) But Meet the Blind month is even cooler than pumpkins!
So, what are you guys doing this month? Any exciting events? I am
aware that we have a diabetes Action Network seminar on the horizon.
Tonight I will be going to speak to a group of 5 and 6-year-olds about
blindness and guide dogs. I am looking forward to this immensely. I
am also working on an educational campaign on Facebook, through which
I will attempt to teach people what it really means to live as a blind
person. I'm sure I am forgetting about many of the awesome events
happening this month. Let's share the excitement with each other...
Let's educate the public and build the federation! :)
