Tanya McGee Wheatley 💜☘️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
Joy Tilton@NicksWorld @blindquilter which is just utterly stupid, imho, although, I say this as someone who was born totally blind. So, ... yeah.
@tinygirl @NicksWorld I agree. It is stupid. I lost my sight less than a year after graduating high school so have been blind longer than I could see.
