Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 102 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.

Blindness pages 67
The doctor and his wife only recently arrived in the mental hospital. Within these few paragraphs we are given insight into the doctor's concerns. In particular the doctor is certain he is unable to accommodate the medical needs of everyone. The issue isn't due to manpower but more so with his inability to see. Diagnosing illnesses and injuries require sight and without it greatly hinders a doctor's ability to be a doctor. The reality of the situation undermines the doctor's identity as someone who is relied upon. We can expect the doctor's wife to take on a larger role being the only person with sight.
