[Wanda Scroggins]

Hey Jamie,
This is from Wanda Scroggins in Covington County, L.A., Lower Alabama.  I am 
responding to your earlier email into the list serve for NFB of alabama.  I 
am curious where you are located?
We have a large group of visually impaired meeting twice a month as a 
support group of the blind and visually  impaired Andalusia Alabama, 
Covington County. .  If I or any member of our group can assist you and add 
you to our prayer list...pleas let me know.
Currently, we meet the 1st and 3rd Friday of each month 1-3 pm at the 
Andalusia Public Library.  If you are in our area please come!  We are not 
meeting on January 1st due to the holiday...but on January 15th, our guest 
speaker will be Steve Sullivan from Mobile to speak about technology.
I went back to college at 49 years old.  I recently graduated with my 
Masters this past May.  My life has changed so much during the past 5 years. 
I attribute my blind friends moral support, my family cheerleaders, my 
association with Leader Dogs for the Blind, and my fellow Lions, and of 
course prayers and my faith and belief in myself.  So hang in there and 
please call me or email me.
