Part 8 of Vincent Grasso’s You Tube Channel, My Visually Impaired Life, is all praise for blindness services. In 15 minutes, Grasso takes his audience through his own story about rejecting, then seeking out services at Future in Sight in New Hampshire, and how his life changed. He recounts his experiences with accepting a white cane, home management, bill paying using a CCTV, being “mopey” but benefiting from joining peer support groups and joining in on sports activities. He even gives a detailed “how to” for painting your home which he learned from a totally blind friend. We actually found the video on the site of the Montana Association for the Blind, and recommend it for all anyone who is exploring but reluctant about getting services. Why get blindness services
