Re: If there would be a way for getting your sight back, would you do it?
...did we have the same mobility instructor I wonder? Seriously, I managed too nearly castrate myself several times with the long cane, damn thing got caught under my legs the whole time. Also carrots? No, no, Try being given a can of baked beans. Then try having a supermarket assistant acuse you of stealing it. No joke. Gotta love mobility bullshit.....but to be honest I do agree, advocacy groups are a rip off and a waste of time IMHO...
Fun fact, a now retired social worker told me, flat out, not to buy anything from the RNIB catalog, since it was overpriced and all that fun stuff.
Since you moved to the UK, were you forced to learn goalball or was that just me? I was, and oh look, a demeaning sport, or at least taught in a demeaning way, and I don't know any kids who are legally blind with sight who willingly want to play goalball...
Fun fact bout me: I'm a horse guy, I did barrel racing, I learned show jumping and freaked my instructor out. I also broke the RDA (riding for the Disabled) system by being too good for it. So, I got trained by a regular instructor and helped around the stable, which worked out well for me. Gimme a horse and somewhere to ride, I'm good thank ya.
Oh and also, speaking of demeaning stuff, being forced to learn braille, I dug my heels in and refused. I'm more at home on a computer thanks...
