As I round out the last few days of my stint at the Carroll Center, I am filled with a sense of gratitude and sincere appreciation for all of you who have touched my life. More importantly, though, you all saw me as an individual who was important as a human being and not as a blind person. To prove your abilities you shared some very comforting, some very heartwarming stories about life for the blind. You kept at this with an almost relentless urgency that I am just learning to appreciate. Thank you all for your patience with me.
