Hi everyone,
Dr. Vernon Humphrey, President of the National Association of Blind Veterans, actually wrote his dissertation on this topic. His PhD is in Communications, and it’s all about how the communications between partners change when one of them acquires a disability, perhaps specifically blindness.
Stay well,
Justin

Deb,
Thanks for sharing this one. A couple's dynamic changes when one partner undergoes a major life change.
Whether it is a sensory loss, functional loss or major change due to accident or illness, couples need to re negotiate their roles.
