[nfb-db] Communication

[Marcus Simmons]

Dear D/B Mailing List,

We had a meeting on Saturday and two guest arrived. One was totally deaf/blind and the other was only deaf. Since none of us are totally deaf blind, we did not know how to communicate to our guest. Any comments?


The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
