Hearing as well. Although I love music and the sound of my little boy's voice, I think it would be harder not to see his face. Also, my mom is a Sign Language interpreter and my sister is fairly well-versed as well, so I feel like the transition would be easier than with another loss.
I might give up sense-ibility... oh, wait, I probably already have! No, actually, smell would be the worst to give up because so much of taste is connected to smell so it's like giving up 2. No one has said touch -- that's a surprise to me.
About Six-Word Questions
SMITH Magazine brings you an entirely new kind of six-word experience: Six-Word Questions. This is the place to pose a question to the SMITH community from, "What are your favorite Six-Word quotations" to challenging members to pen Six-Word Obituaries to the recently departed to Six-Word jokes and any other Six-Word question you can dream up. You can even request that the responses be in six words. Everyone has a question—what's yours?

My sense of smell has already diminished because of my allergies. So when I really can smell something wonderful, it is deeply satisfying.ctgoods2 says,
