Life is hard - for everybody, but in many ways more so for blind and visually impaired folks. It’s also awesome though, so let’s talk about that.

What did you recently succeed in and want to talk about? Work, relationships, travel… something else?

Bought new crutches today and got a shipped notification less than 30 min later.

Nice! Are you replacing or upgrading?

[–] VelvetStorm 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Both. I have an old injury that is starting to hurt more and more, and I bought some cheap forearm crutches hoping it would stop hurting before the crutches got annoying. Well, it didn't, so im getting some actual nice ones. I never knew that some crutches could be so expensive. There was one brand that is almost 900 bucks.
