Beautiful Sunday as We Visited Deaf People With Poor Eyesight and Depression

It was our schedule to visit our deaf students in our town, which the meeting place is in our house. The assignment given to us was in a village called Maniboc. There are 11 deaf people in the area but due to time constraints, we only got to visit the three of them.

We first visited the deaf siblings, who has vision impairment. The male one has cataract which was recently removed but his vision remains blurred. His eyesight is straight, and he cannot see anything from the side (both left and right). He can't see you from a distance. You need to be close to him when communicating.

His sister is experiencing the worse. She has glaucoma and cataract. We started training her with tactile. It is communicating in sign language while her hands is touching our hand and movements. It's a great challenge, but we felt happy she is responding, and we can see the joy in her face.

We visited another deaf person who seemed depressed, and he doesn't want to go out of the house. We're unsure what's the cause but his ma'am told a lot of things about what he's going through.

Before Covid19, we already visited him but he's so adamant. He doesn't want us to visit him but his mom is kind. During our visit on him, he seems better, and accepted us though he really seems different from his fellow deaf ones. Maybe he will improve on his social skills soon.
