Me in the college studio recording an early podcast as part of my HND in Broadcasting

Hi everyone, hope you are all well

My podcast is called Unque Dyslexic Eye and podcast dyslexia and neur diverstity. I started it up because COVID happened and I wanted to support and nurture the metal health and well being of dyslexia, neuro diverse through creativity.

I had a mini stroke in my left eye about a year ago so not made a new podcsat for a while. I am determined to start it up again. 

I would be happy to be a guest on podcasts about dyslexia, neuro diversity, disability, health issues, science fiction, prog music etc. 

I am a successful social entrepreneur. Founded my social enterprise, Dyslexia Pathways CIC in 2007. 

I am a dyslexic, dyslexia and inclusion specialist with over 25 years experience working with dyslexic, neuro diverse and disabled communities.

Update and progress with my mini stroke and dyslexia news

 

Dyslexia is not about disorders, discrepancies and deficits its about diversity and difference

Dyslexia: a difference that reflects diversity

Good day to you all hope everyone is well,

First, a little update on the mimi stroke in my left eye. 

Its about one year since I had my mini stroke that made me lose about 70% of my sight in my left eye. 

I can't really recall the exact day or time. All I know is it happenned. But it must have been sometime around this time in January last year. 

I call my left eye my 8 bit eye. It will never recover. There is nothing that can be done to repair that eye. Lucky enough I can still see pretty well with my right eye. I have been passed fit to drive. I went though a period of grieving for my loss eye sight.

It has made it more difficult to compensate for my dyslexia, My good eye gets tired more easily when I am reading.

When I was going through all the medical examinations on my sight as a whole They found baby cateracts in both my eyes. Not enough to interfere with the sight in my right eye as it is now. But it will not go away by itself. So i have decided to get the cateract it my good eye removed. This will happen some time in March 2026. 

I could leave it for a while until it impacts on my sight in my right eye. But, I have decided to get it done as soon as possible. There are risks involved but they are small risks. 

There are risks involved it I do nothing. Had a chat with my wife and decided to get it done.

I am accessing support from the RNIB, Royal National Institute for Blind People.  I am involved with a weekl chat group and getting counelling, both over the phone.

Dyslexic news:

Today I went into Heriot Watt University to pick up a new laptop for my work. It came with a lot of new assistive technology helpful for my dyslexia. My own Windows 10 laptop works ok but it just not  secure or safe enough to use any more.

I am going to go to the Buisiness Gateway nextweek to get advice on doing my dyslexia work online. I will look around for any possible support for disabled entrepreneurs. 

I got Adobe software from the Uni included with the new lapto. So I can start recording and editing new vlogs and blogs again.

Thanks for reading;
