So much for your miracle.
But thank you for speaking for me. Since you clearly have a way to communicate beyond the words on the screen, you are correct: you speak in a language I have not learned. While you may have the ability to discern what a person says beyond what they have said, I do not and must rely on the broken crutches of plain speech: words on the screen.

Then let's go back to my original question:
If you know how to help, and you know how to do it right, such that there aren't any negative effects (assuming that's possible), shouldn't you help?
You would answer "yes", in this case?
