<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><DIV><STRONG>Gee Justin I thought all sisters helped their brothers, I have 5 sister's and 8 sister in law, and each and everyone of them has helped me with something. You just have to know how to persuade them I guess, I used to tell them if they didn't help me I'd move in with them. But they new I was bluffing. So I gave up on that one. Anyway about inviting this woman to a meeting I have suggested that to her friend. I haven't actually spoken to the woman as of yet, but inviting her to speak at a meeting might not be a bad Idea, I think, but not sure she might be a member of the ACB, so I'm not sure if I'll get her to come, but I never say die.</STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG>Good idea thanks, keep working on your sister. </STRONG></DIV>

If she seems to think she has it together, it will be hard to conveince her that she is someone who can benefit from us. If we make it look like we’re interested in her and ask her to come, that might be a way to ease her into a more positive philosophy. We can work on her steadily.</SPAN></DIV>

<P class=yiv753511009MsoNormal><STRONG>Although I sort of know the answer to this one, I have to ask. This afternoon I received a phone call from a woman who's a house keeper for a blind woman who lives in CT she was concerned about the woman's welfare, there are several interesting things going on in this woman's life, none are good. First place she's a blind professional who has a dog, however according to this woman, the dog may not be treated properly it's not being handled correctly, and maybe under fed. Secondly this woman has two squatters living in her home. Both women who she's represented, and now she can't get rid of them. </STRONG></DIV></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=yiv753511009MsoNormal> </DIV></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=yiv753511009MsoNormal><STRONG>The house keeper has also told me that in the past the dogs have gotten sick on her rugs, messed on them. So the rugs need to be cleaned or replaced however the woman refuses to do that. The Blind woman is under the impression that everything is alright, and she doesn't seem to want help from anyone. I recommended that the house keeper contact legal authorities because quite frankly I'm not sure what if anything I or the NFB can do for her, if she doesn't want our help. My question to you folks, is out side of giving her BESB's number and suggesting that perhaps she should call the health dept. is or was there anything else I could've done?</STRONG></DIV></DIV>
