Someone posted how can we communicate with a blind person as a joke but got me thinking how is it done with both blind and also a deaf.

    I have actually dealt with a partial deaf blind student back in elementary school.

    You can sign ASL into their hand so they can feel what you’re signing(normally individual letters). Or they hold your hands to feel the gesture/sign you’re are making.

    They read braille as a just a blind person would.

    But over all takes more effort to learn this way.
