Transabled woman finds happiness.

[juansavage1]

 

Jewell Shuping, a woman with BIID who self-identified as blind–and a psychologist helped take away her sight.

 

In 2006, Shuping found a psychologist who was willing to help her become blind. The psychologist began putting numbing drops in her eyes, followed by a couple of drops of drain cleaner. “It hurt, let me tell you. My eyes were screaming and I had some drain cleaner going down my cheek burning my skin,” she told Barcroft TV. “But all I could think was ‘I am going blind, it is going to be okay.’” It took about half a year for the damage to take effect. “When I woke up the following day I was joyful until I turned on to my back and opened my eyes – I was so enraged when I saw the TV screen,” Shuping said.

 

Eventually, one of her eyes had to be removed and the other had glaucoma and cataracts. Shuping says she is now “happier than ever.”

Can't wait to see what direction Juan takes this one

[UndertheHalo]

so the psychologist, rather then treating her went along with this stupidity ? Did I understand that correctly ?

[Schildog]

hahaha

“I really feel this is the way I was supposed to be born, that I should have been blind from birth,” Shuping said. â€œWhen there’s nobody around you who feels the same way, you start to think that you’re crazy. But I don’t think I’m crazy, I just have a disorder.”

 

 

WTH.

haha crazy. Literally.

Trans.

If I ever decide to go blind I'm using the "traditional" method to cause it.

The difference between Cal and I is about 1 degree of subtlety.

All this time I have been telling my optometrist he can't get my prescription right.

Why "transabled"?

 

Is there some connection you want to make, Juan, between this woman and transexuals? Is this one of those ridiculous "but then we should allow bestiality, right?!" arguments?

[Adam]

I just wanted to make sure everyone got your joke.

 

It was a good joke and enhanced by Cal's commentary

Nothing like a blind lib

[juansavage1]

"Transabled" is the term they use- I didn't make it up.

Dad: Son! Don't do that, you'll go blind!

Son: Dad, I'm over here!

i wonder about the inner conversation she had with herself.

 

"you know, i'm tired of being able to see all the really interesting, meaningful, and beautiful sights and colors and people around me. it's time to put an end to this."

Wiki calls it a disorder, but other things have been called disorders and then changed.

I don't need Snopes to tell me that woman has problems.

[juansavage1]

Well, more like that the story is bigger bullshit than her giant, blind, fat girl titties.

I searched Snopes and didn't find anything. 

[juansavage1]

Thanks for the link. I couldn't finish the article. I don't find mental illness interesting and actually quite off-putting. I hope the story isn't true.

But oddly enough, you can find the most obscure stuff about liberals. Why is that?

I found the Snopes article. Most of my friends from high school are very very left so I have experience discussing things with them. I was also left and an atheist for a few years so I'm familiar with some of the stuff.

I laughed into a seizure reading this.
