This is, I think, the first communication I've ever come across that comes directly from a deaf-blind person.
I'm of the generation that cut our teeth on The Miracle Worker (which has probably been profoundly attacked by the Suck Fairy in the last 50 years), and also of the science fiction generation that got deeply caught up in John Varley's "The Persistence of Vision," so I've thought some about deaf-blindness.
But both of those came into my life before I had the (always limited) understanding I have now of "nothing about us without us," so this post is extremely welcome.
