If I wrote in a physical journal and I were to become blind and/or deaf how could I get someone to digitize my journal entries so I could read them using a Braille display or some other method? (self.Blind)

Apps like Seeing AI and Envision AI now finally have handwriting recognition modes if your handwriting is neat enough. There are braille transcription services out there, but that's something pretty personal to be sending to a stranger. Why not type it or record your journal on audio now?

You would still be able to write by hand if you became deaf.

Hi, I'd use Aira az a trained agent could transcribe the text for me to have it on a word document.

this wouldn't help with your older stuff, but if you wanted to change now, there is a system called Livescribe (https://www.livescribe.com/site/). You need a special pen and paper (although you can print your own), and it tracks what is written and it can be digitized. There is also handwriting recognition, but I find it to not always be the best.
