Why is it that authors who portray visually impaired people in their books always portray them as having had surgery or some miracle to give them sight as the way to go? Why not have a totally or partially blind person be the genius detective or whatever? Why must that person have once been blind but can now see? #Blind #BlindFrustration #PetPeeve
@NicksWorld @blindquilter I guess some authors aren't original enough, so they have to come up with some miracle cure to get rid of whatever is deemed offensive, of which blindness, generally seems to be amongst the top 10, if not top 5, things to be so bloody catastrophic, almost up there with cancer, if not there already.
