I have AMD- age-related macular degeneration; not a surprise to me, it was an ailment shared by my mother and at least 3 siblings before me. AMD is quite common and there are many worse conditions; in all likelihood my world will never be without light so I am preparing to live a rich life and to thrive notwithstanding the condition.

I'm an inveterate reader- but that's the ability I am most likely to lose. My eyes, not my ears, have been the most important to me.

I have talked with my local library so I know there are many resources available, but I'm still not certain how one's daily life can be navigated. I live alone and like it; although I live in a culture of many friends I don't want to lean on them.

Mudcat is a being with multiple minds and countless experiences, so I ask: How does one navigate with AMD?

Question: Is buying something like Kindle a good way to start?
