1. Personal and interpersonal reconciliation, to blindness, to deafness and to a new culture Ron and Maria, grandparents of our son Jerome’s Fiancé, Fiona, also let me video interview them (link below), about their fascinating. Ron shares my love of flight and was a pilot until an accident grounded him. Maria, from Romania settled in England when she and Ron fell in love. Her original plan was to stay for a year to learn English! They have reconciled themselves and been reconcilers for each other in such complementary ways. A beautiful story. Do watch it.
Thanks again to Ron and Maria. Their video interview shows that:
1. the absence, reduction or loss of our mobility or a sense, can happen suddenly. It compelled Ron to forgive and move on.
2. Maria was able to adapt to her loss of a shared language because Ron was willing to make essential adjustments.
3. Ron was able to adapt to his increasing blindness because Maria was willing, through prayer, to support Ron more.
4. Accepting some loss of independence and employing greater use of imagination, memory, audio books etc can help, .
