 <p>I was born with a visual defect called microphthalmia, which is a big word that simply means that my eyeballs did not fully develop and are thus about one-third the size of a normal human eyeball. I have no sight at all in my left eye, and I have a visual acuity measurement of 20/2000 in my right eye, which basically means that my vision is very limited. Throughout the duration of my childhood, my mother (who was a single mother who had the task of raising four children including myself) as well as others around me had no idea what to do with me as I was the only visually impaired person (to my knowledge) in the town in which we resided. To say the least about my childhood, my mother did her best to raise us, but we lived well below the poverty level; I had few friends because many of the children my age were afraid to even be around me as I was 'different'.</p>
 
-<p>I was introduced to computers in 1998 during my eighth grade year. I felt completely hopeless as I attempted to see the screen in my middle school's computer lab. The system ran Windows 98, and I felt like a complete failure because I felt as though I could never use a computer system.<br/>
-I purchased my first computer system (with money which I scrounged up over many months) in 2001. This machine ran Windows ME, and it is needless to say...I still felt like I could never use a computer system. As time went on I was introduced to commercial assistive technology software such as the ZoomText screen magnifier (produced by AiSquared) and the JAWS screen reader (produced by Freedom Scientific). I finally felt like I could do something with computers. In 2002, I earned a certification of completion from a local vocational school as well as a Honors Diploma from my local high school.</p>

 <p>Thanks to a state agency, JAWS and ZoomText were purchased for me at no cost, and I felt much more productive in using a computer system. Then it happened: time for upgrades (which were by no means free)! I couldn't afford them, and the state agency would not authorize them. Things just did not function as well on my updated computer system with frozen assistive technologies.</p>
