Blindness

This page deals specifically with issues related to blindness. Since I am a person with visual challenges, this is something I have a great knowledge of. I want to educate others about the importance of such issues as employment, and daily living-to name a few of the challenges we face. It is my hope that you can learn and be helped by such resources as those dealing with technology, cooking and living.
