You might want to recommend to her to contact the mentoring program of the NFB. I remember Ed Bryant doing that for me, and that is how I got in touch with David Stayer.

I am also on the program as a mentor.

  Greetings.

   

  The sister of a newly-blind diabetic in the Arlington, VA area has contacted
  me, requesting help and references to resources to assist her sister in the
  transition to blindness and living with diabetes as a blind person. I've
  written her back, sending her a Word copy of Bridging the Gap and referring
  her to other accessible diabetes resources. The lady has also contacted Fred
  Schroeder, President of the NFB of Virginia, who has put her in touch with
  the President of the Arlington chapter.

   

  Do any list participants live in the DC/Arlington area who could also act as
  a mentor/friend?

   

  T I A.

   

  Mike Freeman, president
