Going Blind Sucks Dustin D'Addato

In this week's episode we talk about mentally coping with RP.  A while back I watched an interview with Michael J. Fox where he talked about having Parkinson's. He seemed so well-adjusted and almost happy that he had it. It totally messed with my head for a while. Should I be dealing with RP better? Should I be out climbing mountains or singing songs? Is there really a right way to deal with the news that you might go completely blind?

You can check out the interview we are talking about here:

But please watch it after you listen to the episode.

In this week's episode we discuss making the move to using the white cane.  Does it work for the forces of good or evil?  Does it really make you feel more independent or is that what people who can see say to make people who can't feel better? Is everybody who sees you using one judging you all the time and going home and telling their friends and family about it?

This is where it all begins.  Are you ready?  I'm not sure I am, but here we are.  In episode one we discuss the time I found out I had RP and how it led me to creating this podcast.  Enjoy.
