we had a very interesting friendship, we both do the same kind of work,
except she had more disabilities than blindness, we were able to discuss
anything, and our relationship was much more open than most women share...
she stuttered tremendously, but as i grew up next door to a guy that did,
not only did her stuttering not bother me, i was able to NOT help her so she
actually calmed down and she talked better, she would NEVER have asked
someone else, but she was comfortable enough with me that she felt she
could, just as when she came to a meeting a few months later, i asked her to
NEVER wear the perfume she had on around me... i am allergic to most but
this one was really hard on me... again, i am sure she wouldn't have asked
another person, but we had almost immediate trust in each other,
