Happy New Year from Life After Blindness

Posted in Blog Posts

I hope that everyone has had a wonderful holiday season and a great start to the new year! Unfortunately, I’ve spent most of the last few months rushing between doctor visits, medical tests and hospital stays. Thankfully, there has been plenty of love and holiday cheer sprinkled in from my family, friends and those of you who follow my work to keep me positive and strong!

As regular listeners to the podcast know, 2018 was a very difficult year for me and my health. That combined with health issues suffered by my family as well as other personal situations, I am very glad to put 2018 behind me! I am really looking forward to making a fresh start in 2019!

As always, my blog and podcast are still dedicated to the exploration of an enabled life with blindness. The blind and visually impaired community is truly a global community. Because of this, I feel it is more important than ever to talk about blindness. Not just to each other but also talk about each other. I want the whole world to know that with a little effort and education, we can enable ourselves to do great things!

In this new year, I will continue to discuss the best in accessible hardware, apps, games and anything else that I think would be helpful. I will also continue to interview people who have a positive impact within the blind and visually impaired community. Along the way, I will share with you stories from my own experiences as well as tips that may be useful.

I also appear each week as a co-host on the blindness technology show, Double Tap Canada. Hosted by Steven Scott and Co-hosted by Shaun Preece, Double Tap airs every Thursday at 8 PM Eastern time on AMI Audio. It is also released as a podcast. You can find out more by visiting the Double Tap website.

Please come back to Life After Blindness each and every week for new written content in addition to the weekly podcast. And remember, you can find Life After Blindness where ever you listen to podcasts. If you want to contact me with comments or questions, please send your emails to: tim@lifeafterblindness.com

So please join me in this new year as we continue our journey together to find that there truly can be a Life After Blindness.
