[HumanSer] Consideding obtaining a social work degree and working with people dealing with diseases is this option feasiible for someone blind?

[Kerry Macdonald]

Absolutely, I am totally blind, and have been a therapist working with adults with vision impairment and chronic illnesses for about 25 years now. Are there challenges? Absolutely there are, but it can be done.

In your opinion, is it possible for a person who’s blind to do this type of job. i'm a fluent user of both VoiceOver and Jaws. Thank you for the input of anyone on this list.
