Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua kore e taea e tētahi pāpā te mōhio ki ngā mata o tana wahine, o āna tamariki rānei i muri i tana whiu. Whai muri i te parekura nui, ka titiro atu a Bob Cockshott, no Orpington, ki te tonga-rawhiti o Rānana, ki tētahi whakaahua o tētahi tokorua e mau ana i tētahi pēpi, ā, kāore i mōhio ko ia, ko tana wahine, ko tā rāua tamahine. I kitea e te 58-tau te pakeke i pangia e ia he parekura iti i muri i tana oho i te po i te whakaaro kua matapo ia. Ko Bob Cockshott, no Orpington, ki te tonga-rawhiti o Rānana, kua kore ia e mōhio ki ngā mata o tana wahine, o āna tamariki tokorua rānei i muri i tana whiu. I kitea a Mr. Cockshott he mate nui o te prosopagnosia - e mōhiotia ana hoki ko te matapo kanohi - he mate noa iho, engari he tikanga tuku iho. E ai ki ngā tākuta, nā te kōpeketanga toto i te roro i puta ai te whakaekenga, ā, ka tukuna ia i te wā kua heke te pūngāwerewere i tōna roro. I whakaaro a ia ko te ngoikoretanga o te tirohanga o tētahi wāhanga o tōna kanohi anake te taonga tuku iho o tana whiu. Engari i tere tonu tana mōhio he nui ake te raruraru i a ia e haere ana ki te kura ki te tiki i tana tama e ono tau te pakeke a Alex, ā, kāore i taea e ia te whiriwhiri i a ia i roto i ētahi atu tamariki. A, i tana tirotirohanga i ngā pukaemi whakaahua a te whānau, ka kitea e ia, kāore e taea e ia te mōhio i ana tamariki i a rātou e tamariki ana, i a rātou anō rānei e tamariki ana - ahakoa he pikitia o ia anō. I a ia e titiro ana ki ngā pukaemi whakaahua o ngā hararei a te whānau (i whakaahuatia) ka kitea e ia kāore e taea e ia te mōhio i āna tamariki i a rātou e tamariki ana - kāore rānei i te mōhio ki tētahi pikitia o ia anō. Ka mea a Mr Cockshott ināianei kua tipu ake ōna tamariki kāore e taea e ia te maumahara he aha te āhua o rātau i a rātau e tamariki ana. He uaua hoki ki a ia te tautuhi i a Clare, tana wahine i 22 tau, mēnā i herea ōna makawe ki muri i ētahi atu whakaahua. I kitea a Mr. Cockshott he mate nui o te prosopagnosia - e mōhiotia ana hoki ko te matapo kanohi - he mate noa iho, engari he mea tuku iho. Mai i taua wā ka uaua ia ki te mōhio ki ōna hoa me ōna hoa mahi, engari ka taea e ia mā te haukāinga i ngā āhuatanga motuhake o te tangata, pēnei i te tū, ngā tikanga me te kōrero. Kua whakatauhia e ia...
I titiro a Bob Cockshott ki ngā pikitia o tōna whānau, ā, kāore i mōhio ki a rātou. Ko te papa-a-rua i pangia e te mate pukupuku i te po, a, i whakaaro ia kua matapo ia. I ora te tirohanga engari i tere tonu tana mohio he nui ake nga raru o tana. E mate ana a Mr Cockshott i te prosopagnosia, e kiia ana hoki ko te matapo kanohi. Kua ako ia ki ngā rautaki aro ki te mōhio ki tōna whānau me ōna hoa. Kei roto i ēnei ko te haukoti i ō rātou reo, ngā tikanga me te reo tinana.
