Ask A Blind Girl!

[Angrboda]

I don't have any questions right off. I think you're amazing. I've seen some visually impaired people using computers at a campus disability office, but that you are able to use them so well just astounds me. On the other hand, I lost nine fingers about 6 years ago, and I'm sure some of the things I do amaze other people. Some things I can do now, I never imagined myself being able to do right after I lost my fingers. I'm also disabled by mental illness, and that's a whole other kettle of fish, but my struggles and strengths on that score are largely invisible to other people. People see the outside behaviors, and because they don't understand it, they call me a freak for my illness, and mock me for it.

Anyway, I didn't mean to make this about me. I'm glad you're here. I'm looking forward to getting to know you.
