No hats for me

It could be one of the coldest Canadian winter days, or one of the hottest summer ones. When most people would reach for their hats or caps, I deliberately ignore them, and why? They cause me big problems. As a blind person, I need to depend on my sense of hearing much more than the mainstream person so whenever I put on a hat or cap, my hearing is greatly affected.

If I am crossing a street with a hat or cap on, my sense of hearing is greatly affected and I often become anxious and/or confused. If I am walking along a sidewalk and wearing a hat or cap, the same thing. So, you know what? No hats for me.

I’m Donna J. Jodhan, your friendly accessibility advocate, wishing you a terrific day and asking you to go out there and tell others about my opinions about the wearing of hats and caps. Come by and visit me at www.sterlingcreations.ca.
