  Bookshare friends,


  As I don't have a story to tell, it is very interesting to hear about your 
past.  It helps the rest of us understand where you are coming from!


  I would like to encourage the stories to keep coming:


  Was there an accident in your life?
  Were you born blind or unable to move?


  Then we can celebrate with you as Roger and Scott are doing!


  Thanks,


  Pam

  Hey Roger,

  Your note caused me to do some calculations of my own. 

  Today is 38 years, 4 months, 6 days since I received a letter from my ski 
instructor certification trainer that I had passed and would I please sign on 
as a teacher at his ski school.

  Today is also 38 years, 5 months, 4 days since I was paralyzed.

  I never became a ski instructor.

  Glad you are celebrating this personal milestone with us. Thanks!

  It is likely that no one here cares, but this is on my mind and there is no
  one else to mention it to. Today is the twenty-third anniversary of the last
  time I saw a human being well enough to tell what they looked like. That
  means that I have now spent just over forty per cent of my life being blind.
