If You Could See
Reading one of Dr. Bernie Siegal's books,  I ran across an interesting question. Blind  Helen Keller once asked her blind friends,  "If you could see for just 24 hours, what would you choose? I pondered that question for days,  then decided to try to write it on paper,  and asked some friends  and a couple of patients of mine  who were interested, to try it with me.  Helen Keller

Helen Keller played a leading role in most of the significant political,  social, and cultural movements  of the 20th century.  Throughout her lifetime (1880-1968) she  worked unceasingly to improve the lives of people who were blind and deaf.  Helen's own approach to life can be  summed up by her advice to a five-year- old blind child in 1932: "Never bend your head. Always hold it  high. Look the world straight in the  face."
