Hello, I just subscribed to your channel and I'm seeing all the awesome things you've done and continue to do. I am low vision too, with Optic Nerve Hypoplasia, Septo Optic Dysplasia and Nystagmus. But enough with the medical jargon. I have usable sight but I still need large print and magnification, as well as to see things up close. I share some of the same feelings growing up as you did. I felt like I was severely cognitively delayed although I wasn't. I believed nobody had the patience for me, and it was a wonder I lived on my own. The past year or so, I have met a group of wonderful friends from all over the low vision spectrum and come to realize just how common these messages are in the blind/low vision community. It saddens and depresses me, makes me feel powerless at times. I want to connect with someone who has done true blindness advocacy, and honestly wants to break down the stigma. I don't want to get into things publicly here, but I would like to reach out. Hope this finds you well and thank you for your time. :)
