Emma's Reaction.

                                

In the book Blind, Emma Sasha Silver the main character suffers from an accident of her being blind, which causes her to have a lot of confusion with not only herself but with others & frustration. In the book her family tried to help her overcome and help her adjust with the incident she had suffered. In the book Emma has a hard time trying to accept the fact of her being blind along with many personality issues. Her family as well has a rather had time adjusting so they try their best in finding ways that they could help. In one scene of the book her father tries to convince her that going back to school was something that had to be done sooner or later, her mother on the other hand said with time she could go back when she felt ready. With frustration Emma replies angrily or with frustration, "I'm not going anywhere"  and sends her dad off with a feeling no parent wants to be given which is not being wanted in general nor the help. I question myself why she would respond this way to her parents because I get that out of frustration she might have said the things she said and gave them that feeling, but why would you want to reject or deny help from someone else that actually really cares about you? Why didn't she give it off to other people who maybe we're just showing pity? That is just a question that pops up in my head every now and then, because a lot of people are like that, but many don't suffer from the same incident Emma did. 

You Will Never See Me Fall & Blind.

The book Blind by Rachel Dewoskin and the poem You Will Never See Me Fall by Joyce Alcantara both contain a type of thought where both of these authors had the idea of them giving up, wasn't going to be in the picture. The book contains a 15 year old girl who suffers from the incident of her being blind, in the poem it says no where that she/he is also blind, but not stating it doesn't mean it isn't implied to that person too. In both writings they both struggled, with reading the book Blind, Emma was suffering with her adapting to the new lifestyle she had to get used to because of the situation she was in. Not clearly being stated what struggles the person in the poem was going thru, but as said " you may see me struggle, but you will NEVER see me fall" states that she must've been going for thru her own type of problems but not maybe alike to Emma's obstacles. Comparing those two, I found that they both struggle but try to not have the world "fall" or "give up" in the picture. They might've had different type of problems, but both "struggle" and don't give up.
