Loss of a sense

[ktheodos]

So....if you were forced to choose between living without hearing or living without vision, what
would you choose? why?

[girlswin2]

   Without vision.  I already know what this world looks like just don't want to lose my hearing.   

[ODOMS6598]

that's a tough question  would i rather not hear or not see.  I would have to say i would rather see than to hear.   

[sgluckadoo]

Yikes! I guess hearing, but i don't know which would be worse.

[makedoughonline]

hearing.

[dreamyxo]

Hearing.   I'd be practically helpless if I were blind.  If I lost my hearing I could learn to read lips.  If I were blind I couldn't do much for myself like drive, cook, pick out clothes that matched, go shopping.  How do blind people count money? 

[smileycoop]

I'd rather not hear and be able to see. I can't imagine being blind.

[Hafapea]

Hearing, because I use my eyes for more than I use my ears.

[articx]

I would keep vision and give up hearing.

There are hearing aids for people who cannot hear, but nothing yet for the blind.

[cynybiny68]

I would rather hear than see.  I have seen the world enough, but I don't think I could do without hearing my little girl's laughter or her crying.

living without hearing. coz even with no hearing i can still see a car coming and can get out of the way fast enough, w/o sight i wouldnt be able to see it coming and i would get run over.
