    I'd rather be mute, mainly because there are cures for it such as certain computer automated speech devices, writing stuff you want to say instead, sign language and so on. Where as there are no real cures for your hearing and seight.

    Mute, at least I could still type things out and we could still have a some what normal life. It would still suck though and I'm very thankful I have all my senses.


    EDIT: I know some one who works with hearing aids and they can turn some one that is completely deaf into normal hearing. His daughter has it and she is perfectly fine, so I'll go with that.

    I'd pick the obvious choice, mute. Although I'd prefer to have none of those.

    Deaf/Blind/Mute - I'd choose Mute, then Deaf, then blindness

    Mute, I'd actually like to be mute anyway. My silence means everything.

    Mute.

    Deafness means you can't hear how words are pronounced, and so they struggle to get things that they have read out properly, as they have nothing to mimic.

    Blindness means you can't maneuver easily, and can't see some really awesome things.

    I spend quite a lot of time in silence, anyway. So, it wouldn't actually be that much of a big deal for me.

    Now that I think about it, being mute could teach me to be a bit more meditative, I could just carry around a pen and notepad to make interaction easier.
