This page may not appear properly. Most people have something that they are afraid of. It might be roller coasters, darkness, or even something bad happening. My personal fear is that my eye disease will progress and my eyesight will get worse as I grow older. I might not be able to get around on my own, I'm afraid of not being able to read and write regular print, and that people will treat me differently.
Fears can be very difficult to face.
My initial fear of loosing my sight is not being able to get around independently. If I cannot drive by the time I'm eighteen, my parents said they will buy me a car for my friends to drive me around in. My vision teacher tells me that I can us public transportation to get around. I also know there are guide dogs for people over sixteen that will help you cross busy streets and get you where you need to go. I am already learning how to use a cane just in case.
