What in the WORLD have I gotten myself into? I am entering the blogging world. Why?!
I was born deaf/hard-of-hearing in both ears. I speak (all those years of speech therapy has paid off well!), lipread, and I sign. I do not see this as a disability because it is who I am, it’s the way of living. I love being in my silent world when I am tired of listening to it.
Then my #1 fear came true. I am going blind.
I recently was diagnosed with Usher Syndrome. Usher Syndrome is a genetic condition that is a combination of being deaf/hard-of-hearing and having an eye disease called Retinitis Pigmentosa. I knew I had bad night-vision and had loss of peripheral but I had NO idea that this was apart of something that would take away my sight completely. Every case is different. I may stay the same for many, many years before I only see a face. Of course, I am praying really, really, really, hard that God will heal my eyes completely. I can only Pray and Hope.
So all that to say is, I wanted a place that I could write about my journey. A place that I could share on a weekly basic my notions ‘n dreams on motherhood, photography, designing, oiling, everyday living, my love for Jesus, the unknowns, the dreams. Enjoy following!
“For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord. They are plans for peace and not disaster, plans to give you a future filled with hope.”
