My disability

My name is Laura and I've been blind since that accident. It was two years ago and I remember it so well I had a car accident with my father and my friend. At first, when I was in hospital and I opened my eyes I only saw dark. At that moment I just wanted to cry, but later I thought that I was lucky to be alive.

My life is so different and difficult. For example, I must learn Braille to write and read well. I miss the colours and my friends' faces, but I'm happy because they're with me and they're so proud of me. Now, I need help for some thins but I have the advantage of seeing the world as it really is, and my life, maybe, is a little easier.

There are some thins which annoy me. When I walk with my friends and I can't walk at the time or, when I go to the cinema it is difficult to enjoy the film. People, respect me, because I'm not blind since I was born.

I feel so well, because, I'm alive!
