[humanser] adjustment to blindness

[Sandra Streeter]

Mike, thanks for the ref to Tuttle—as a person totally blind from birth, I took the Hadley course anyway, and even I benefited! “Shouldn’t be all enjoy the night,” indeed! I was a disturbing news story locally the other day, about a mom’s efforts to fundraise to help her daughter, who has Leber’s; it made blindness sound so-o-o unnecessarily tragic, and really set my teeth on edge; of course, the journalists were all gah-gah! It is hard to win the war on that thinking, when the # of sighted folks is, of course, greater than ours, and their voice seems to be at a raging-higher volume... Keep the faith, everyone, as I will.
