I had a recent experience where the fact I can't legally drive forced me to feel incredibly helpless. In hindsight, it was traumatic but I'm okay now. I don't think sighted folk or non-disabled people understand how difficult it is. So sorry to hear you've had these obstacles thrown in your path, but glad to hear you're okay and moving forward. Sending hugs!
Not being able to drive is probably the worst part about losing vision. I empathize deeply with your situation. I'm glad you found a way through! :)
As many others have said, so happy to see you again Tamara and glad to know that some of your challenges seem to be in life's rear-view mirror. As my vision degrades I feel fortunate to have found your channel as you have, through your efforts, helped me in multiple ways. I look forward to seeing - and learning - more fron you in 2024.
Thank you Fred. I’m so glad to be back and moving forward. I hope your vision loss journey is smooth sailing. But when it isn’t, we are all here to support in any way we can. :)
I am glad to know you are alright, and will continue to work toward improving your life, and serving others in the best you can for the betterment of our community, and others in education, and advocacy.
Thanks! I'm relieved, to hopefully, be on the other side of it now. I love the work I do in accessibility and advocacy and I hope nothing gets in the way ever again. :)
My friend
I’m so sorry it happened to you you’re a awesome person if I could just give you a hug I would.
But I’m just greatful that you’re still alive and here to be part of our family on UA-cam okay.
Just know that you’re loved ok.
Thank you for such kind words. :)
@@UnsightlyOpinions your welcome
It doesn’t hurt to say kind words to someone who has a really hard time in there life 🌹
The DIY nerd in me can’t wait to see your renovation work! I hate you’ve been through so many setbacks. Sewer backups are awful. We’ve had 3 in 2 years. Thankfully contained to the shower and toilet, but it still took a couple days to get the smell to go away. I can’t imagine how long it took for yours with so much damage. I hope you’re in for smooth sailing from here on out.
Hi Chrissy! Three sewer backups in 2 years! That is horrific! I hope you got the problem sorted for good this time. I'm hoping for smooth sailing too. I'm happy to be back and making videos again. I'm excited to dig through the Reno footage and see what I can make of it in terms of videos. :)
When are we going to get to hear some of your music?
Hi Tamara! Good to see you again! My wife asked a week ago if we had heard from you and I had to shrug. I'm so sorry for you and the people you lost last year, that is never easy and you have my deepest sympathy. It is the sideways things in life that define us. They are very hard at the time but once you are through they are your largest victories and things that you will remember and the experience makes similar things easier to get through in the future. We support you and we are here for you even if you just need to vent a little. I'm looking forward to sharing some of your experiences and giving you moral support when you need it.
True wisdom. Absolutely I have learned more from the things that have gone poorly than the things that have gone well. Each and every one of them has brought me to where I am, and although I would have traded each and every one of them for something else in the moment, I am glad I didn't have that choice, because I grew as a person because of it. Thanks Eagle!
Happy to see you back, Tamara! I enjoy your videos so much! Hope you have a good year.
Thank you Lindy! I’m so happy to be back. The very best wishes right back at you for your year!
@@UnsightlyOpinions thank you! I’ve had a good year so far, and I can’t wait to see what you post! ❤️❤️❤️
I'm 71 years old and have AMD
It’s tough going through vision loss. We’re all here to help if ever you need anything.
Wow! I'm so sorry all that happened to you. I couldn't possibly have coped with it. Here is wishing you a much better year.
Hi happy to see you back ❤❤
Thank you!! I’m so glad to be back!
I just discovered you channel yesterday!
I am glad I found your channel. Thank you :)
Thanks for joining our little community. We are glad to have you. :)
I am certainly not an expert in Canadian laws preventing discrimination, but I am surprised to hear that part about the mortgage company not accepting your income due to your disability! In the US, we can not discriminate the type of income for loan or mortgage applications, especially if the applicant has a disability. As long as it's from a legitimate source and it's your income, it's welcome on the application. Having your parents cosign must've been so frustrating
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 i hope everything good for you
Haven't watched the video yet, but was literally thinking yesterday that I wanted to message you to say I was missing your videos and praying you are okay! So glad to see your video this afternoon! Now to watch it!
You’ve been amazing through it all, Tamara! Let’s make those hopes come true this year.
Thanks for such kind words!
It’s good to hear from you again. I was wondering how you were doing. I mentioned your desire to make cards to someone just the other day that was thinking of making some braille cards with tactile things attached to them. I hope you have a great year.
Thank you! It feels good to be back. :) That sounds like a fun project! Let me know how it goes!
Lovely to see you back
Easiest subscribe ever. Glad
you’re finding your stride again. Can’t wait to see what more amazing things you accomplish and content you share!
Thank you so much Titia! I'm so glad to have you join our little corner of UA-cam.
Omg great to see your channel again I missed you. Loved the cards I bought from your store also.
Thanks Meg! I’m so glad you love them. :) I’m delighted to be back.
Hope you are doing good, and in good health. ❤ Getting the deserved rest you need after last year.
i'm so grateful that you found time to record this video! i'm always happy to watch your videos
Glad you like them!
Hi Tamara good to see back sending you more power strength and love keep up the good work good vibes and positive always.
#giveaway
Even though am late hahah
I have late stage RP.
I have learnt many things from you including how to use cane can't wait to learn more.
I'm glad your back, please take time to care for yourself. I have just started loosing vision, which has been especially hard, as I am a student. I am having to rethink my career paths, as I wanted to become a chemist, and am feeling kind of lost. #giveaway, I would use the Orcam to help me read assignments in my classes, specifically in my english and history classes. It would be really helpful in speeding up my pace of work and making my life more efficient. I am subscribed on youtube and live in the U.S.
Hi Elliot! I'm so glad to be back. I worked with a blind chemist, so don't rule anything out yet. I also personally worked in a biochem lab, so there are definitely ways to work around things. There are talking pH meters, auto-pipettes, talking colour detectors, and more. So while it's tough, losing vision and needing to re-learn things, it is not impossible. Sending you good vibes and smooth sailing on your future education. If ever you need help, just drop a line. Also I added your name to the giveaway list! :)
@@UnsightlyOpinions Thanks. I didn't know that there were talking pH meters, which is really cool. Thanks for letting me know that it is possible.
So happy to hear you again and so sorry to hear how difficult the past year has been. I’m glad you still have a positive outlook. As for me, my year hasn’t been as challenging as yours but my neuropathy has gotten so much worse that I no longer have enough fine grained feeling to read braille which makes times that I’m deaf as well as blind extremely challenging. Still hoping to find a solution some day. Keep on smiling and find the time to relax now and again. ❤
That sounds like a tough spot! I hope you find some ways to accommodate :)
Wow you are incredibly strong. Go on keep up moving forward. I really enjoy your videos.
Thank you so much! I am doing my best to do that every day!
So happy to hear from you again
I'm happy to be back! For real this time I hope haha
I'm happy to see a post from you. :) I can relate to much of what you've said but especially the burnout. 2023 has been the year of burnout for me. I know this a parasocial thing but sometimes I feel like I could just sit and have coffee with you while we talked. I hope 2024 goes as well as possible.
Thank you! I know social media can be a bit weird that way, but I do genuinely enjoy chatting with everyone and catching up. It's been a long road getting here, but I'm hoping we can both have a bright and beautiful 2024!
Whoa. I am so, so sorry to hear all of this. That sounds like a truly miserable year where every possible thing that could’ve gone wrong went wrong, and more than once at that. Renovating a new home is never fun, but it truly sounds like everything just went completely off the rails over and over again. I can’t imagine the stress y’all have been under, and I really really hope that this year gives you a lot more breathing room and space to recover And bounce back to your life as you envision it. Please do take all the time and space that you need when making content, pace yourself, and forgive yourself if things don’t go according to plan sometimes. I have a feeling most of this community will still be here, and wouldn’t hold a single thing against you if and when Things go wrong and need to be delayed. Please take care. 💜
Thanks for all of the kind words of support. I'm definitely taking it slow ramping back up into video creation. It's good to be back doing what I love, and I'm hoping life is on the upswing. :)
Yea to all those video's you have in your backlog! also take your time getting back on your feet and sending all the love, hope and light your way
Thank you so much Kimberly!
@@UnsightlyOpinions No thank you for showing me not to give up on living life with passion and adventure just because you can't see the world anymore ❤
Glad to see you back! Sounds like you've had a big set of challenges to overcome and a lot of things to learn. I'm pleased you've been able to work through them and come out on the other side ready to move forward. I wish you all the best as you settle back into a more normal routine. May the Lord provide you with the peace of some uninterrupted calm in what remains of 2024.
Thanks for such kind words Claudia! Wishing you a great 2024 in return!
I am so glad you're back! I'm sorry to hear about your setbacks last year and hope things turn around for you in 2024.
I am a design professional specializing in Wayfinding. I would like to learn more about how people with visual impairments find their way through the built environment. I'm looking for ways to improve my designs so everyone has equal access.
Thank you!
Hi Kim! That's amazing! People who care about accessibility in design are heroes in my book! It makes a tremendous difference. That makes for a great video idea! I'll definitely work on that, but the long and short of it are I prefer straightforward layouts main hallways with branched rooms, not a lot of clutter or things that stick out along walls, as that is where I like to trail as a cane user. I love when there is a change the texture in flooring or for my low vision friends, change the contrast on the floor to differentiate new areas. Also I avoid high pile carpets like the plague as a wheelchair user. Braille/tactile signage makes a big difference too. Hope that briefly answers your query. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to write back. :)
First, I wish you a hopeful, restful, easier 2024 and beyond. I love your content. As a legally blind and physically disabled woman, I feel so much less like a unicorn when I see your content. I would love to see a comprehensive video on guide dog use with a wheelchair, including who or what organization is training them in the United States, Canada, or UK. My husband and I are looking for a more accessible home, so in addition, I would love to see a video about that once you get it edited. Accessibility is usually never out of date is it? Thanks again for doing what you do!
Thanks so much for reaching out! I very much feel the same. Creating content and connecting with folks with multiple disabilities has made me feel so much more "normal" in my own body. :) It's a process I am trying to figure out as well. There used to be several schools that did it, but now all of them have closed their wheelchair guide dog programs. It's so frustrating because many of us would benefit from a wheelchair guide for so many reasons. I will definitely update when I have something that can be shared on that front. Please let me know if you find something too! As for the accessibility in our home, I'll definitely have that edited together soon. I think I'm going to split the video because what I have right now is a little confusing haha. So look for one talking about accessibility before and after and one on using power tools and construction coming soon!
@@UnsightlyOpinions Thanks so much for the response! Yes, I was afraid of that about the guide dog schools. And I look forward to the accessibility content! Cheers
#Giveaway I would use the OrCam to help with all the readings I have to do in grad school and to help with shopping (such as identifying products, prices, and expiration dates on groceries). I am subscribed on UA-cam and Instagram! So sorry to hear about all you had to deal with the last year. Hope 2024 brings all that you hope and can’t wait to see more videos!!💜
Awesome! I've got your name marked down for the draw in a couple of weeks! Wishing you a bright and awesome 2024
Hello Tamara. Nice to see you back on. I have missed your upbeat presentations.
I am not sure how you made out with the Orcam, but I have found short falls that reduce its usefulness. I found it hard to align to the printed page if there was any daylight. Also the AI word recognition was very poor in a lot of occasions. It was so bad that it was difficult to tell it was the same story. It read I'll as 1,11. Even though it did allow me to read a book, it did make it difficult to understand.
Having done a number of Reno's in the past, I think it is fantastic that you would even attempt to do a whole house. Good luck and I look forward to seeing it as you progress.
Garrie
Hi Garrie! I'm so glad to be back. You and I are entirely on the same page regarding Orcam. I'm hoping it can go to someone who will find it helpful, but it's not me. :)
Being albino, I get some of your challenges. But you have gone through so much and faced more than one should have to. I am more than impressed with your resiliency and ability to keep standing let alone keep moving forward. You are gorgeous, intelligent and of great spirit. I would just say, stay close to God and keep your indomitable drive. Many prayers!!!
Thank you for your kind words. We are pushing forward and making the best of things. :)
@@UnsightlyOpinionsGreat attitude!!!
Oh my God girl. I was heartbroken listening to it, imagine going to it. I am so sorry you had a hard year. I’m so sorry that people broke into your house three times. Scumbags are everywhere. I hope that you get your peace of mind, and stability Back.
Thank you Afron! I'm sure I am on the road to bright and beautiful things. I'm so glad to be back. It has been something I have really missed over the last year.
#GIVEAWAY 💜 I am subscribed to UA-cam, Instagram, and TikTok 💜 I would be able to use The or Kam three in my daily life as far as reading, MAILE, menus books, signs, etc. 💜 so glad that you are back filming videos I missed watching them. Hoping for a great 2024 I would love to see any of the upcoming videos that you had mentioned. 💜💜💜
Thanks Tab! I've got your name down for the giveaway! Whisking you luck on the draw!

HI Tamara,
I am Sourabh, duffering from Retinitis Pigmentosa, left with approx 10 percent of my visio, I am also a working professional in need of a device that can help me boost my efficiency. Other than that, I am also working on a low cost Optical Character Recognition device for VIPs(visually impaired people). This device will also help me test my low cost prototypes, as I wont be able to afford such devices for my testing.
I am following you on all the other channels, including your gaming channel.
I'm sorry to hear about the challenges you faced during your home shifting experience, but I'm glad to see you back in action. Your home looks incredibly cozy and beautiful in the background of your videos, and I'm excited to catch more glimpses in your future content.
Looking forward to the opportunity!
I have added you to the giveaway list! I hope your new products are a fantastic success.
💕
Glad to see you back. #give away , if I had one of the Orcam Read devices I'd use it when volluntearing, to read the papers to me so I can file them correctly, with and ear bud in. I'm subscribed to you here on UA-cam. I live in the United States of America.
Hi Michelle, I've got your name noted down for entry! Wishing you luck on the draw!
@@UnsightlyOpinions thank you very much.
#giveaway (I know, it's too late, but) ... I just subscribed after watching your original Orcam video. My 90 year old Dad has pretty bad macular degeneration, so I would give it to him. I will be going over your other videos. Even though the Orcam is too much $ on some levels, it could solve many of his problems. If I can find more positive reviews, then I will ask him if he wants one. I hope Orcam has a return policy where if it doesn't work out after a month then you can return it. Don't want to get locked into a contract for something that serves no purpose.
Hello from New Brunswick! I am a 57 year old almost totally blind woman with 2% vision in one eye and the other is fake. I don’t know how to # on instagram or TikTok.IJustWantedTothank you for your courage and being honest and sincere. For not trying to be a disabled influencer that makes everything all perfectly wonderful. I genuinely and various sincerely appreciate and value your comments and your input and your videos. Thank you so much for staying true to you. My thoughts and prayers for a much better year ahead for you. I look forward to your next videos.
Thank you so much Dawn! Always happy to virtually meet another fellow Canadian! I think it's important to balance the good with the bad. Life disabled or not not always sunshine and roses, so we nee to talk about the good the bad and the ugly sometimes. :)
so happy to hear from you again, but my goodness thats a lot to go through, so glad you are doing well-cant wait for your next youtube!e
Thank you so much! Next video on Wednesday if all goes to plan!
Hi Margie! Just wanted to pop in and let you know that you won the OrCam draw! Let me know how I can get in touch and get that sent off to you. :)
hi Tamarra just wanted to know if you got all the information you needed!@@UnsightlyOpinions
hi @MargieSnadersflower I was wondering if you could reach out to me via email at unsightly opinions @ gmail dot com. Opinions has an s with your preferred mailing address. :) I don't want you to post that publicly and I'll get that sent off to you ASAP!
@@UnsightlyOpinions ok doing the best i can LOL will get you that information again thank you
#giveaway
I would use it to navigate more easily. I use a longcane and im subscribed to you on youtube.
P.S. Its good to see you again i was a bit worried
I'll add your name to the giveaway list! I'm glad to be back :)
😮
Drop your fav sunglass recommendation pleaseeee
Ohh great question, but it's a tough one. Most recently, I have been finding frames I like from anywhere like WalMart and asking my optometrist to custom tint lenses for me. It's expensive like 150 by the time you factor in lenses and tinting, but I get the exact frames and tint I want. I'm working on developing a sunglasses line to make that more affordable, but it may be a while before that come out. :)
#giveaway.
Hi Tamara, fly chick here from Toronto. I would really love to win your or cam three. As I can’t see anymore, I would use the OC cam to find things in my cupboard. Right now I’m mostly use Be My Eyes and it really sucks to always have to call a volunteer and ask them what I’m holding in my hand. So hopefully you will pick me. i’m only subscribed on UA-cam.
I am sorry that you had so many troubles last year and that your human rights issues are still ongoing. I was hoping that you had resolved your human rights issue and I could hear the good news. So sorry that you lost a family member this year.
But on the sunny side, congratulations on becoming our first time homeowner. I know when my husband and me got our first house in 2000 30 I think it was 2007 that was the best thing that ever happened because I no longer had to rent apartments and could design the space as I saw it. We could paint it whatever colour we wanted and put it whatever kind of wallpaper there was and our dog is could run free in the backyard.
I’m glad that you’re back on UA-cam and I will hopefully be enjoying more videos such as how you design your space to accommodate your wheelchair and be blind friendly. I would also like to hear about blind friendly appliances. I don’t read barrel, but I really want to have that Amazon microwave that you can tell Alexa heat microwave on high for two minutes.
Anyway, hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you, Janice
Hi Holly! I'm so glad to be back. I'll definitely add your name to the giveaway list!
#giveaway
I love reading books but don’t have enough vision to be able to read them. That’s what I would use it for and paperwork.
I live in the US
I've got your name marked down! Stay tuned for the draw in a couple of weeks
#OroCAMgiveaway. Hello. I am so glad that I found this channel! I have Keratoconus. My vision in my right eye is minus 128 and in my left eye it is minus 125. I can still see colors and movement but if someone is standing more than half a foot from me, I cannot see the details of their face. I am going to obtain a puppy in a few weeks and am planning on having him trained as a service dog in a few months. I currently live alone in the house that I inherited from my parents. I am sorry to hear of what a tough year 2023 was but I can relate to the broken pipes fiasco. I took had a pipe freeze and burst when we came out of a deep freeze too.
I would use the OroCam devise to be able to train my dog better and to do some online lessons. Reading is difficult but I do it anyways.
Here's to a calmer more productive year for both of us. I am looking forward to more helpful videos from you.
Keep the faith.
Hi Lynette. I'm so sorry to hear of your pipe issues. It's so much mess!
If no one wants the Orcam device, you could try blind bargains, they don't ship things to the UK as far as I know but it might work if you're in the US/Canada.
I definitely found someone who really wanted it, but thanks for the suggestion!
@@UnsightlyOpinions No problem!
#giveaway
I also have ocularcutanious albinism, and I think I would greatly benefit from the orcam read 3. I am legally blind, and am a high school student. It will definitely help with school, and even more importantly, I am going to college soon, and it would be an awesome piece of tech to have. I am subscribed to you on UA-cam, but I do not have any social media though. Is that okay? I also live in the United States. Finally, I would like to thank you for what you have been doing. I really enjoy watching your videos, and I am always looking forward to the next.
I'm so glad you have been enjoying the content! I've added your name to the giveaway list!
But unfortunately, I stay in India Asia continent although very nice video

How did you afford to buy a house?
It took over a decade of very careful saving and planning to make it work. A lot of sacrifice with this specific goal in mind. I haven't taken a proper vacation in that long, no small or large luxuries like coffee or new clothes, and a whole lot of side-hustles all contributed a little to the big goal.
What type of albinism do you have?
I have oculocutaneous ablinism 1A
Mam kindly share your skin care routine and hair care because I'm also a albinism
Girl. And how to buy the product. You show the video
For Visually impaired peoples. I'm a visually impaired girl.
I'm sorry for my English mam.
I often think to myself that there will be no one to talk to me like me.
Because everyone here sees me anew.
People in this country and people in my family have no understanding of our race.
I'm sorry it sounds like you have had a tough time. I hope you are able to find folks to talk to in India. Have you reached out to organizations that work with blind and low vision folks there?
What happened after your wheelchair broke by lynx, do they fixed it for you😊
Sadly no. I'm in the process of trying to get the money together for a new one.
@@UnsightlyOpinions please get insurance this time, and I heard TiLite frames has lifetime guarantee so that might help too
# give away i would love to get the orcam to help me with my trying to buy food at a store ,not sure if im getting you on tic tock or noy been trying !
Hi Margie! I've added you to the giveaway!
thank you so much
Hello my name is Nadia and I am coming from Africa as a degree student in inclusive education I want you to give me a training opportunity in braille 😊😊😊
Hi Nadia. If you are looking to learn braille, I would check out Hadley.edu They have free braille courses and I believe they ship worldwide. :)
I hate the name of the orcam, it literally sounds like orgasm
you've been through a lot and i wish i could help i get not feeling safe in your own house its scary while i dont have my own house being blind and not being able to hear things well its a nightmare suddenly hearing a voice i dont recognize my family says i over react but that person could very well be a murderer" i for one had quite a bit of highs and lows last year, lost the tiny bit of remaining vision and.". not long after had to undergo a surgery to get rid of my left eye cause it hurt a lot like a lot got a prosthetic best decision ever, tried a bunch of things that didnt work chat gpt sort of came for my work despite that had the best year financially was able to fund my surgeries myself umm learned marketing that didnt quite work web development that kinda worked got my first client for that, got really good at editing audio started a horror story podcast out of all things lol a few people listen to it. but it was messy had my hands stuck in so many places one bad day and everythng goes kaput" got denied a savings account they just couldnt believe im the one doing all the work. umm got a new piano after 3 years of running away from music" a lot i cant write everything. and you're really strong you really are it takes a lot to get back up knowing you have to and no one else will do these things for you its a weird life but we can make the best out of it" we can try to. stay strong much love"
Wow sounds like your year was as chaotic with ups and downs as mine! I'm glad you found some new passions to sink your teeth into. :)
@@UnsightlyOpinions this was by no means a comparison you went through a lot and hearing about it kinda made me feel helpless cause you pushed me to do so so much more and im glad i found you when i did i really wish i could help" idk life is weird at times but we put up with it cause we have to there's really no way around it and i dont like the one that is. oh and the running away from music thing sounds weird without context so i lost my hearing a huge part of it mm exactly 3 years ago and i loved like loved music so i stopped listening to it alltogether because it didnt sound like it did before and i was scared i'd forget what it really sounded like, decided to get back into it this year however broken it sounds i hope things work out. thank you for doing what you do
I'm currently looking into getting a digital piano. I'm thinking of getting the Kawai ES120, any advice would be much appreciated.
@@WeAreAllDoomed-n5i heya just did a quick google search and while i cant look at it it does sound quite good and has good reviews also a bit pricey at 900 something and you could get that if ou're serious about music and are not just starting out cause thats some money right there and you should be able to get good value and use out of it. i however got something more on the budget side of things a yamaha psr e373 goes for around 200 something but the taxes are weird where i liue and it ended up costing more than 300 but still good value i mentioned i have a impaired hearing and it sounded pretty good to my broken ears and checked all the boxes for me with midi and audio over usb touch sensitive and uery good main voice. i was looking at the yamaha p series before the p125 is good but a bit old at this point the p225 just came out its around the 600 mark though i would highly recommend shortlisting some models and going to a music store to check them out physically so you know what you're getting and if you like it awsome. i would also check out some reviews and make sure it checks all the boxes and does what you need it to so it can serve you reliably" im happy with mine hope you can find a good one soon
@@WeAreAllDoomed-n5i also if you cant see ive been messing around with reaper and its fairly accessible and you can do quite a lot with it im still learning but so far so great.
