I'm not near what I think of as blind yet, but my bifocals sometimes ironically need to come off in order for me to see writing or other things adequately (it could be a glasses problem, but I've had them for almost a year). As somebody who already has massive mobility issues, blindness might be the last nail in my coffin, whereas hearing is something I'd likely not miss as much.

 Your sight problem could be diabetes. It can cause your sight to be very strange at times.

 If it came down to it pick different sides it would give you better balance to many things.

If I lost my sight, I would take whatever steps were necessary to end my life. I absolutely cannot imagine living blind and I sure as hell wouldn't want to.

 That's just stupid, my grandfather was completely happy as a blind person, a disease took his sight. People can adjust as long as they love life.

  Why can't we all choose to keep both and feel fortunate we have both, hearing and seeing give us so much beauty and pleasure. I think the worst thing is to consider losing either one.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
