Dawnelee Wright of Thunder Bay, Ontario, lives with deafblindness and has found the COVID-19 pandemic to be a real struggle. Her situation highlights the importance of assisting and supporting people living with vision loss during these troubling times. A service in her area is helping; they've sent a professionally trained guide to support and communicate with Wright.
"Let's say I want to do some cooking. She'll help me with the recipe. If I wanted to help the kids with homework she would read it to me so I could assist them," said Wright.
SDCB is dedicated to helping people living with vision loss and blindness; please contact us to learn how we can help.
