For a long time now I have been struggling more with my sight. I hate it  but I have decided that a long cane might help. At the moment I am using a guide case.

A guide cane is a straight stick that is supposed to come to the waist. It is used more to help me judge steps, curɓb edges and obstacles.

A long cane is ĺonger and is supposed to be tall enough to reach the chest when it is stood up straight. It is used by sweeping it across the ground.  This helps to judge uneven ground and different types of paving. It also helps me to identify obstacles and trip hazards. I think this could help me to feel more confident again. I have ordered one with a pink handle and I can’t wait for it to come. There is also a light up ball available for the end of it. This lights up red and blue. This is to help me and my stick get seen in the dark. I think I might get one of those.

Wow, as I write this my new cane has been delivered. I love it! I can’t wait to go out and practice with it in the park later.
