[Ohio-talk] Convention

Wed Nov 7 09:58:41 UTC 2012

Yes the story is painful but it was important to me to share with the new
people who attended the convention. Colleen I thank you for the love you
have demonstrated to me over the years. I will look in to what you have said
and fyi this email moved me. Positive Payne

I have to say that I really was very moved by what Richard shared with us at
the Convention on Saturday.
I cannot imagine what he endured after the accident. I am sure none of us
can really understand that experience.
I wish we would have known your story a long time ago, Richard. It is
something you don't share for various reasons and I am sure it was very
painful for you to share. I want you to know though that it is really
something for all of us to contemplate.
We certainly can see what you had to overcome to live your dream. These are
the things we should share with newly blinded people and their families so
that they can truly understand that blindness is not a tragedy. 
I think you should record your story for NFB History.
I am not saying this because I want to experience this pain again but
because I think your story may be helpful to those who come from similar
circumstances.
I didn't cry but I really wanted to.
I know you probably think I just think about cats but I do have a very deep
love for the NFB and our family members.
Again, Richard, thank you for sharing.
Colleen Roth
