The Checkup with Doctor Mike · She Doesn't Want To Cure Her Blindness | Molly Burke · 12 Oct 2025 podcast

And I don't think you should be waiting until you or one of your loved ones is impacted to care.

But B, I think that a lot of it comes down to the fact that many of us were raised to don't look, don't stare, don't point, don't ask questions, right?

As little kids, when we saw somebody with a prosthetic leg, wearing hearing aids, with a facial deformity, an upper limb difference, and we said, mommy, what's that?

So what we taught kids from a young age is ignore.

That that's a topic we don't talk about.

So you grow up ignoring.

You grow up scared because you don't know what to do or say now because you were never taught.

And so we really need to change that.

So what I do, anytime a kid asks, why is there a dog in the grocery store?

And I hear, shh.

I bend down and I say, hi, this is my guide dog.

He's a really special dog.

And I just tell them.

I just tell, glasses don't work for me.

So my eyes don't work.

And so he sees for me and I can ask him to find things like doors and stairs and chairs.

And he does that to make sure that I'm safe.

Cause it's like walking around with your eyes closed.

I explain it to them in a way that it makes sense for them.

And you know what?
