Listen "EP 21 | I'm not ready to let go of my daughter's messy trail of fingerprints on the walls"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I am reading a post I am shared on Substack on the 27th Sept 2025.I have made the decision to create audio versions of my written content to ensure the blindness and low vision community, or people who just prefer to listen, can access and enjoy my muse. It’s titled ‘I'm not ready to let go of my daughter's messy trail of fingerprints on the walls’.I share how seeing my daughter’s fingerprints on the mirrored doors of my wardrobe when she was two years old made me feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude because I was told, when she was just a few weeks old, that she would never see and may never walk, talk or eat with a feeding tube. And how, almost 17 years down the track, I still love washing the walls of her fingerprints, because it reminds me of all that we’ve achieved to overcome a diagnosis that was pretty dire in those early days.Support the showConnect with Tanya: Website Substack Instagram This episode was recorded on Dharug Country and I acknowledge and pay my respects to the traditional custodians of this land.
