I read an article recently about an ex-military blind guy trying out for the Paralympics. The article itself is the usual inspirational irrelevant b.s, but one comment stood out - the article mentioned the last thing the guy ever saw. This is an interesting question. I suspect for most people, the phrase ‘last thing you ever see’ means dying ( Read more... ) -
Update time!
Been a bit. Bad news: I've got RP, so the slow spiral into deaf-blindness is now a fact of life. Good news: II got my Master's In Criminal Justice in May.
