WAKING UP BLIND

November 2012

Without warning, I wake up blind in my right eye.

The next morning I wake up blind in my left eye.

I have regained some sight but remain legally blind. I don't see most colors, I am unable to drive and I have lost my career.

I had written this blog before I got sick. I started it when I was job searching during the financial crisis.

Now I'm searching again. But now it's not only for a job, but for what my new life will look like. Ironic, isn't it?
