On Being Visually Impaired in Israel, During War. Heather Stone! (Audio)

Heather Stone is a high-functioning Israeli, involved in American politics, the mother of two children, with an exciting social life, including tandem-bike riding twice a week. Heather is visually impaired, since 2017. She also has a guide-dog, Schyler, and a second dog, Lilly. In this interview, recorded on Yom Ha'zikaron, Remembrance Day in Israel, Heather talks about the sadness of the day, losing her sight, volunteering with IDF dogs to help injured soldiers, and how she manages getting to the bomb shelters when she's out, the sounds of the sirens for her and her dog. To understand the inimitable spirit of the Israeli, is to know Heather Stone. Am Yisrael Chai. The Nation of Israel Lives!
