Often times you hear about people losing their eye sight or the ability to hear, but I personally have never hear of anosmia. After reading what Karl missed most was the smell of people, it really opened my perspective. There are so many little things that we take for granted without realizing it, including our senses. After analyzing my day, I realized how much I really do rely on my sense of smell. I really enjoyed that the author, Lawerence Rosenblum, incorporated Karl's story.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16317369267993370476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322018507256276685.post-32595277928013634312017-06-10T13:07:08.028-07:002017-06-10T13:07:08.028-07:00I really liked that you chose to write a post abou...I really liked that you chose to write a post about this topic because while I was reading this chapter I found myself really thinking about what scents I would miss the most if I was diagnosed with anosmia. I happen to agree with Karl and you about missing the smell of people. I to this day miss the scent of my grandfather because while I was growing up he continually used the same aftershave every morning. For me, I would miss the most basic scents from people to the ocean to even a real Christmas tree. I never realized how difficult it would be to be able to smell all your life and then one day wake up and not be able to smell anything anymore. Once you lose your sense of smell, suddenly you rely heavily on your sense of touch, taste, and hearing in order to make up for the lost sense. This section was extremely eye catching and I loved that someone else saw it the same way I did!Michelle Guidicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04744507072601681998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322018507256276685.post-52660410422120548802017-06-10T13:00:05.100-07:002017-06-10T13:00:05.100-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Michelle Guidicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04744507072601681998noreply@blogger.com
