[Blind-Rollers] Guiding wheelchairs

[Lauren Merryfield]

Hi,
I do not have an answer for your question, however I wanted to say hi and stuff. 

I am now in a skilled nursing facility, and pretty much  bedridden. The diagnosis is: severe, advanced, degenerative osteoarthritis of the right hip and spreading to the pelvic area.  Also some in the spine. Very, very painful even with pain meds. Bummer!

The staff here has no idea how independent I once was. I don't think they believe me when I tell them.  I do not like this!

I am still writing, crocheting and listening to music using the "cylinder" as my sister calls it. 

So, that is my update for now. 

I was worried that this list might have died or something. 
Thanks,
Blessings,
Stay safe and well,
Lauren Merryfield

Are there any schools flexible enough to train a dog for a wheelchair user who is totally blind. I am asking for my friend and maybe myself for the future.

 

Warmly,

Becky
