[NHLakesChapter] NFB of NH March Chapter Meeting

Fri Mar 17 21:55:25 UTC 2023

Thank you Randi & Kelley for your support. I am a little nervous about the reaction, I have had it happen a few times when people realize I am visually impaired I get the response, "Oh I am so sorry but I wish you the best.” What does the even mean I ask myself. I feel it means, they are scared so they say thank you but no thank you. Argh. I remind myself that I know I am good, and they are the ones missing out on the potential. 

Good luck to your grandson Kelley - that is a big accomplishment! Use your voice and stay strong Randi & Dharma, we are with you. We are all better together! 

Many blessings,
Melissa

> Hoping this finds you well today. I look forward to our monthly meeting in the morning and seeing everyone. I wanted to let you know in advance I have to leave the meeting tomorrow at 11:30 to attend an interview appointment. This is a big appointment for me because it is about a potential job, my vision will come into the conversation I am sure. I try not to announce that I am visually impaired until I am asked because of my previous experience loosing my job once I lost my vision. It was devastating to loose my dream job because I lost my vision, I was actually forced to resign or they were going to fire me. Thank you for letting me share.
