In David’s words, “Don’t let your blindness overcome you.” Learn more about how vision rehabilitation can help people with vision loss maintain their independence and quality of life: nei.nih.gov/lowvision.

He was in my guitar class. Back in 2010 or 2011 if I'm not wrong. I never really talked to him, but he was a pretty cool guy. This happened in Albert Einstein High School. Kensington, MD.

Also, speaking the bible out loud is healing. I had neck fracture pain go away while reading the bible out loud one day. My bones, joints and whole body felt very much stronger too. So never forget your daily bible reading or speaking out loud for a few minutes or more. If it can heal necks I believe it can heal anything. Pray every day in Jesus' name and always Tithe faithfully. I've been healed through my Tithing many many times also.

Am so scared of going blind

@livewire4438 2 жыл бұрын

Being blind from a very young age would be one thing but to me I think going blind later in life would be much worse. I am facing the fact that I might soon become blind I'm not there yet but I already have contemplated suicide over just the idea of blindness. I have nobody, I wouldn't be able to make a living, I could no longer drive, I have to be in a completely dark room just to see what is in this screen. I doubt that I would ever be happy as a blind person.

I know exactly what you mean, it's probably one of the hardest things to deal with in life. I go through the same thing, it has turned my life upside down. I cannot imagine when things go completely dark how I will handle it. Honestly I'd rather not be alive. May God help us both, miracles do happen.

@@JM-rl3kf cortical implants are the chips which will directly be implanted to the visual cortex of brain and will help with artificial vision by completely bypassing the natural eye. My younger brother has also lost his vision due to trauma. So, I am also waiting for commercialisation of cortical implants.

Back in my city, there was this blind guy who said hello to me on the street once and I don't answer because I was so concentrated on how crooked and light colored his pupils looked. And then he said hello to me again in a store shopping and again I didn't answer. I never saw him again.
