Hi Alex! I have albinism too. :) Do you have friends to help you cross streets? Mine help me out on the sunny days, sweeties they are. Do you have a cane? I do but I don't use it because it's a little embarrassing for me, a lot of people don't know I have albinism (my case is more mild). How do deal with these kinds of things? These are vague questions, I know, I'm just excited to connect to someone else with albinism.

That's always the first comment I get! "You don't have albinism, your eyes are blue."

Awesome thanks for the response! I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling uncomfortable with the cane, I live in a large city and I still don't often find use for it. I (believe) I have ocular albinism type two, so it's not nearly as noticeable, lots of people don't believe me the first time I tell them either! It's super cool to hear about your experiences, thanks for posting!
