[nagdu] New information about more and more people becoming blind

[The Pawpower Pack]

Albert,

Yeah, I get that quite a bit.  Also that I don't sound deaf.  I wish I  
knew what blind looked like, or what deaf sounded like.  Both deaf and  
blind have spectrums.  Someone could see or hear nothing, and someone  
could see or hear some.  Some deaf voice, and some, like me, who went  
deaf as adults, voice for ourselves in addition to using ASL.
I swear sometimes I just don't understand people.  I guess though  
deafness and blindness are portrayed in the media and in literature as  
being black or white.  You are either totally without sight/hearing or  
you are sighted/hearing.  As we know this isn't the case but it's not  
a surprise that people will see it that way; we do tend to get most of  
our information from the media.
