Blindness Attorneys

The five senses of Sight, Hearing, Smell, Taste and Touch are all extremely valuable and the loss of any one or more of them is tragic.

An injury victim who suffers a permanent loss of eyesight has had his or her life changed instantly and drastically. To suddenly be unable to see would be a terrifying prospect to deal with for anyone. It creates special needs that must be equally addressed. Basically, the person must learn to live a completely different life without the aid of eyesight. The injury victim must take special training and, of equal importance, will need to deal with extremely powerful emotional issues. As with any injury area there is a range of loss ending in total loss of sight.

As with any injury, medical treatment must be obtained in a timely manner. Of equal importance is the need to follow up on the medical treatment so that:

  2. There is a proper record.

Burns

People are justifiably fearful of the prospect of uncontrolled fire. To be exposed to an uncontrolled fire and burnt is a simply terrifying prospect, but it is a very real possibility in many injury causing situations. For example, in the area of Car Accidents the very presence of gasoline creates a real hazard.

As with any injury area there is a range for burn injuries. In this area numbers are often used to detail the injuries, with degrees used to indicate the severity of the burns, and percentage of body mass used to indicate the extensiveness of the burns. This use of numbers can appear callous because there is a human being that the numbers relate to, who must live with the burns.

The pain can be unimaginable and the recovery long. There is always an emotional issue, but in the most severe cases the emotional issue will be simply staggering to deal with.

Fibromyalgia

Imagine yourself in terrible pain across your body, although outwardly you arguably look fine. Imagine yourself being so tired as to not be able to function. Imagine all these things and then imagine people telling you there is nothing wrong with you, that it is all in your head – and not just any people, imagine medical professionals telling you this.

It was simply not that long ago that a person suffering from Fibromyalgia would, in all likelihood, not be taken seriously. Thankfully, it is now accepted, although there remains certain naysayers even today.

Fibromyalgia can be extremely debilitating, changing a person’s life dramatically. Fibromyalgia can rob a person of the life they’ve come to know, making simple day to day coping difficult.

Fibromyalgia finds its roots in soft tissue injuries that are widespread across the body. Soft tissue injuries, as a general category of injury, can be very painful and require long recovery times. Fibromyalgia is something more, as recovery does not seem to occur regardless of the passage of time or the efforts made by the injury victim.
