My early memories of the radio


I do remember that as a child the radio was my constant companion. I listened to it as often as I could and this is how I learned all about the big wonderful world. I listened to the news, followed all of the children's programs and bedtime stories, followed the sporting events, but most of all there was my music. Heck, I often heard the news before my siblings could read it in the newspapers.

As a blind kid, it was one of the fastest ways to learn, get my info, and keep up with things. I knew and could recite by heart most of the commercials. I used the radio to learn so much and the radio was a part of my daily life.

My radio was almost always with me and oh how I loved it. There were many times when my mom would scold me to put it down so that I could go to sleep and there were so many times when she and granny would join me to listen to those infamous soap operas after supper. Ah, such wonderful memories.
