    I have been watching this with interest, Motep.

    ... I just wrote a large post trying to explain what I feared in blindness, deafness or similar incapacitating injury, and what I have imagined I would try to do if such a thing was to be suffered. But I realised that it was not helpful to someone in your position, and so I just want to say that I sympathise, and that I believe if one can be fatalistic and accepting of all things, he can control and measure his happiness and unhappiness. He can with his mind remove from all events of life both advantages and disadvantages, and restore or withhold these separately and at will.

    Good luck, and please tell us what happens next.
