I am using this blogging site to keep friends and family informed about my life for the next 7 months or so of blindness training at the Colorado Center for the Blind. I have Usher's syndrome which results in hearing loss and progressive vision loss. Now the state of Colorado is paying for me to go through an extensive training program. There will be lots of challenges ahead for me and I am both apprehensive and excited!!!! The training consist of being blindfolded 8 hours a day 5 days a week and learning how to function completely without sight.

tripped

I was zipping along in the hallway sweeping my cane in a pretty fast wide arc and all the sudden I felt it catch on something and I heard this thump. I totally tripped one of our volunteers and sent him sprawling. By this point I had taken my shades off and tried to help him. Of course he was pretending he was fine. I couldn't believe it. Felt so bad!!! He was a BIg man too and I totally took him out. Wow...I think I have a self defense weapon.
