That part where you said you’d miss expressing yourself through fashion really stood out. I’ve met blind folks who build a style through touch, simple labels, and trusted feedback, and they still own their look, while screen readers keep them active online. With training and a few tools, a lot of that lost control can return, even if the start feels scary. I still panic when the power blinks for a second, so I get it. Have you tried a short eyes-closed walk at home with someone nearby to notice what sounds and textures guide you?

I've never tried that, except playfully but not to take note of much. Maybe I should try that.
Thanks for stopping by.
Give it a go for two minutes in a clear room, one hand on the wall or a chair, barefoot so you can feel the floor. Notice sounds, air on your skin, textures under your fingers, and any smells. Jot a quick note or use a voice memo right after. If you try it, tell me what surprised you.
Awesome. If it feels safe, try a slow lap with eyes closed and note one sound, one texture, and one smell that jumps out. You could also try picking an outfit by touch and guess the vibe before you peek. Tell me what surprised you most.
