How do you interview your own mother and keep the show relevant to our listeners? Fortunately dear mother was a major influence on me especially with my interests in tech, science, and psychology of the human family.  So it is with great pleasure that we present you with tales from Irene Lambert, recently honored in Parliment for the remarkable achievements she has made in this lifetime! Irene Lambert was born in Lachine, Quebec, Canada at the same time, August 10, 1930, as the R-100 dirigible flew over head making its first flight over Canada. As it was the dawn of the age of Airships, all the nurses and hospital staff rushed out to see it, leaving Irene alone as her first experience in this world.  Being the eldest of three children in a very loving family. Irene was diagnosed at ten with Retinitis Pigmentosa and lived with diminishing sight and then complete blindness. For many years she and her late husband Dr. Robert Lambert fought and won many battles for the rights of the disabled, especially the blind, while pioneering helpful new tech. In 2021, Irene Lambert was honored with the Chris Stark Distinguished Advocacy Award by Barrier Free Canada  in recognition of her lifelong contributions to disability rights and accessible communities around the world. And now, at 95, she is is still with us, with more memories to share and tales to tell! Enjoy..
