Which would you choose?

#1. To lose the ability to be able to talk to your spouse ever again, but have the ability to look at them, or

#2. To lose your vision and never be able to see you spouse again, but have the ability to talk to them?

Which would you choose and why, please explain your answers.

Update:

I would choose #1, because losing the ability to see my wife's beautiful face on a daily basis would kill me. Plus, she'd love it because it would mean I would never have the ability to interupt her. Plus, we'd be able to communicate through letters, notes, text messages, and sign language.

    I would have said #2 until I read your beautiful reason for choosing #1. I hope I have found someone that loves me that deeply. Pray for us!

    I refuse to give up anything. If I can't see, then I can't drive and be independant. If I can't talk....well that's just down right cruel to take away a woman's ability to speak her mind. Lol Nope! I refuse to chose one or the other. This really is an unfair question. I don't think I like it : (

    Up till final wintry weather i could pick wintry weather at any time when. Something approximately the list quantity of snow that i needed to shovel, push, plow or snow-blow clear of constructions, roofs, sidewalks and driveways introduced a down part to wintry weather. I will pass with wintry weather after a pause for suggestion as my favourite recreation (Ice Hockey) can not quite be performed with out wintry weather, proper?

    Hmmm, good question! As a visual, I guess it would be to not be able to hear them. At least I could see them speaking in sign language. Then again I am a visual person so I'm totally biased in my answer. Hope that makes sense.

    Hmmm... I'd rather loose the ability to see him, because let's face it, as we grow older, neither of us are gonna get any better looking anyway.... but there is always something to talk about.

    #2 I see him when I close my eyes just as good as when there open. I can't get enough of his voice.

    #2 because their image will always be implanted in you; however, without communication, nothing is possible.
