Manage episode 396220587 series 2868703
Maureen Moscato – a really good friend of mine – she is so funny. I found the original tape – It is worth a relisten!! She is much funnier than I am playing her!! Yay!!
Maureen is a real treasure – her stories reveal a woman who grew up in the school of hard knocks and her resiliency go her through – but if you’re interested in the pros and cons of dog guides, long canes, waiting for O&M to get out of the house and be independent and blind politics and ADA- this is a really great listen all the way to the end.
Maureen gives us a unique look inside the life of a blind woman, blind from birth– taxis don’t pick her up – she’ll see you at the taxi commission –
Listening to Maureen you realize- for her- there are no obstacles. She demanded equal access Niagara Falls and then gleefully left her husband, who has some vision, behind – in the mist.
Maureen dreamed of giving young children access to long canes – she said age 6, we say age 10 months. She is living proof blind kids can grow up without safe mobility, but why should we continue this barbaric tradition?
Safe Toddles seeks to end the barbaric practice of blind babies walking without a two-step safety buffer between them and danger.
And remember if you can go where you want to – please do so as safely as possible.
