Just want to say hello

Hi. My name is Tracey and I just wanted to say 'Hi' and introduce myself.
I am registered as severely vision impaired and also have a new diagnosis (oh joy!) of Fibromyalgia triggered by Cumulative PTSD. I never even knew that was a thing!
I live aboard a narrowboat with my hubby, Tim and our two dogs. My Guide Dog is Loki - a 7 year old yellow Labrador from Guide Dogs UK, and Ozzie is a little rescued pug x Chinese crested who we have trained ourselves to help with Tim's hearing impairment.
We have recently founded the Accessible Waterways Association, striving to make the canals and rivers more accessible for everyone.
