Because of staying in constantly and vision changes, my ability to cope outside of my house, especially when walking (I sometimes use a wheelchair, but am pushed) has diminished. The busier the place, the more impaired I feel (does that make sense?)

I had an appointment for August, which was made in June (and cancelled because of lockdown-go figure, Covid ruins things designed to fix things Covid ruined). I finally got a new appointment last week for tomorrow-YAY!

Any stories, advice, hints, tips, questions I should ask, things I should definitely mention, etc, please?

Thanks


Update-it. was. awesome. I learned to use a cane to get around the mall (crossing a small street at the lights, stairs, escalators, crowds) and next week, my O&M is going to help me gain confidence crossing a 6 lane road and taking the bus by myself :D


When I woke up this morning, I never could have imagined not being terrified of stairs or escalators, and here I am, adding stuff to the list of things I want to do. I'm so glad I finally did this.
