Im staring out the window as we drive past the landscape, not that I can see much of it anyway. I was born with a condition called Retinopathy of Prematurity, which pretty much means that since I was born blood vessels in my eyes have leaked resulting in scarring of my eye and retinal detachment. I've had surgeries to help but they haven't really done much, so I have nearly no vision. I wear sunglasses to protect what vision I do have left.
Since I can't see I have to rely on my other senses to help me, and my guide dog, biscuit.
As I feel the car come to a stop, I grab my backpack and step out of the car with the help of my mum. Biscuit jumps out after me, picking up her lead we start to head to the new house. I wait to the side as mum unlocks the door. The house is so empty that when you talk you have an echo.
Biscuit leads me to room where I have seat on the mattress that was brought in by my dad earlier, so I have a place to sleep while the rest of our stuff is being brought in. I hear my mum come in and sit down next to me.
"so Noah, how you feeling about moving house?"
"it feels kinda weird but I'm sure I'll get used to it. Kind of scared for school though, what if I don't meet anyone new?"
"I'm sure you'll make lots of new friends, and you can still talk to your old friends too."
"I guess so"
"I'll be making dinner soon, I'll call you through when it's ready, okay?"
"okay, thanks mum."
