Which really doesn't have much of anything to do with much of
anything. Just because one has been blind from birth does not
automatically mean s/he has accepted or adjusted to blindness. It's
certainly possible for someone blind from birth to strongly resent
blindness, to believe it not to be respectable, to find it an
insurmountable barrier to a full and productive life. Clearly Margo
doesn't find it so, but living with blindness for your whole life
doesn't necessarily make you well adjusted to it.
