I touchdh a he3yboard
I hear a noise
Birds tweek
A spielling checker a typing mistake
I can not see a keyboard
I can check a spelling
I cant see my mistakes
And a glimmer of light shine that tells me a light is on
And touch typing

Passing

Fun is probably the wrong word.

Something in Froggy's words kicked something in me and that is really what this is about.

Froggy wrote and Vision seemed to become important.

Lack of hearing, speech and sight is the way I seem to be trying to write about in a very small way, since I can do all of this.

I was trying to see how the "world" I would survive if I couldn't see.

I will try another when I blank out my hearing and my sight and then try to write.

Thanks

Dave

yes Dave, one who can see, hear, and talk can only imagine what it's like to live every day without sight, hearing, or being able to speak. It's a scary thought, but people do survive and even thrive. Helen Keller for example.
