  • I'm always amazed at those who lose vision and are so well adjusted. I've been visually impaired all my life, & think it would be worse to know what I'm missing. I guess it's always more comfortible to take the known than speculate on the unknown. & college books (at least when I went) were awful, because the ones available on tape were always last year's edition, & the professor, of course, always wanted a new or different edition.

  • So if your blind you can still see the color black?

  • she probably went to chris cole rehab where im about to go its a great place

  • @withhearted So do I! When I was 12, I got a disease, and when I woke from the coma, I went blind for a week. AFter my vision was restored, I had double vision, and I still have double vision vertical and horizonal, but even though I get dizzy, I am still attending college.

  • What an inspiration. :) I wish you all the best in law school and beyond!

  • @haleygrace1 Yeah! The college work is HARD for me! I'm legally blind, but I can still see. I have to order extra large print boo!ks and my computer screen is huge! ha ha! I'm studying Arabic, and the letters are so freaking tiny! ha ha ha! بالغ الصغر
