[Blindtlk] Life stories

[adrijana prokopenko]

 Hi all,

 Just heard a feature in a magazine called "The unforgettables" in
which some blind people revealed some events that happened to them at
some point in their life that brought some great things to them in the
end. One lady was talking about an incident in the hospital after her
baby was born when the nurse misread the number on the bracelet and
brought her the wrong baby. Luckily, the mom felt something was wrong
and let the nurse know and then the conversation went on between them.
The nurse found out that touch is extremely important at the same time
for the blind even when holding and recognizing babies! The
conversation brought a new friendship and as it was described, they
are now life friends, so things don't always have to be so bad if we
try to handle things calmly and if both sides are receptive to work
their way out and keep communicating well. Any great stories that you
could share?
