Tadoma

Tadoma, like the chapter said is the ability to read speech when you're deaf and blind based on touching the mouth and throat to feel the mouth shift and the vocal chord's vibration.  From knowing a few deaf people as well as a blind kid or two, I know the struggles they face are very hard, they're often called idiots or weirdos and it sucks because they work hard to overcome it. I can't imagine what it would be like to not only have one, but both of those obstacles and its awesome that there were ways like this developed to help people with these conditions still be able to communicate.
