I have so much to say about A Touch of Understanding that I just don't know where to begin or which thread to follow. I just told a friend that I'm reviewing A Touch of Understanding's website, and he expressed an interest in becoming involved. I referred him to the videos on the website and made the following comment.

A Touch of Understanding fits into the disability awareness portion of my life. Educating others about my blindness as I roller blade or shop is often emotionally very draining. Having the A Touch of Understanding team for support is tremendous. Talking with students when we're in the educating frame-of-mind means that I feel as though I'm maximizing my efforts to make my life better.

As time goes on, I'm sure I'll add to this. I read the note in 2004's newsletter about Mike showing me his hands, and that too says so much about what A Touch of Understanding means to me.
