Dear Mr. Know,

My 13-year-old son was hurt in an accident several days ago. His doctors say he has no chance of seeing again. I have no experience with the blind(盲的). I want to know how he may behave in the future. I want to know everything I can to help him. Please help!

Mary

Dear Marry,

My son, Trey, who is nine years old, also lost his vision(视力)suddenly. I think one of the most important things for you to do is to find other blind kids of your son’s age in your area. He will need someone to talk to that understands his situation and can give him some advice. Sometimes, other kids treat your son differently, and it takes time, experience, and patience to learn the best ways of dealing with this. But if your son had another successful, blind teenager to talk to, that person could tell him how they dealt with the same situations. Also, often talk to the doctor so that they can show your son how to get around safely. Learning to use assistant technology(辅助技术) and Braille(盲人用的点字法) are also extremely important. Where I live, we have a place called Envision that offers these services. Check around for something similar in your area. I hope I have been of some help.
