Introduction!

To my fellow students and Professor Haines,

My blog will be about living as a person with a disability, but not just one. I plan on living about four hours a day with a specific physical disability. Week 1, will be blindness, Week 2 will be deafness and, finally Week 3 I will be in a wheelchair. I would like to stress that in no way am I making fun of or degrading any persons with such disabilities. I find that reading about and even working with people with disabilities can only take your learning experience so far. I know that I will never truly and fully understand what it is like to live with these disabilities, but I hope to gain a better understanding and try to see the world as they would. I won't be posting all four hours just 20 or 30 mins of video and my reactions after each day. Please bear with me because I am not technologically savvy and it might take me a bit to load the videos. I am looking forward to sharing my experiences and hope we can all learn a little more. Thank you, be well and stay tuned.
