 When I was in the nursing home in Barstow last year, they 
thought that a group home would be better for me when I was to be 
discharged from the nursing home I flat out said no way.  I have 
heard over the years what they do to disabled people.  They have 
no idea what blind people are capable of doing.  Perhaps for 
people that need 24-7 care, they might be okay, but for someone 
that can still be indipendent, they are no good.  Even nursing 
homes really have no idea about the capabilities of blind people.  
I know this because I was in two of them last year.  Yes, I 
needed to be there because of health reasons, but when I was well 
enough to walk without assistance, they both were not willing to 
let me do this.  They said that I would run into the elderly 
people who were in wheelchairs and couldn't get out of the way.  
Even afer I told them that I could hear the wheelchairs, they 
still didn't want e to walk around by myself.

group homesituation

 I think that group homes should be abolished, in my opinion.  
Accept for
 people who need 24-hour care.  I think nick should have the 
right to
 live his own life and be independent.  I will pray for you.  I 
think
 you are doing the right thing.  His parents should have been 
more
 encouraging and supported his independence rather than treating 
him
 like crap because he's blind.
