[nabs-l] Stupid Question

[Joe Orozco]

Hello all,

The subject line forewarned you of the ignorance of my question, so don't
laugh!

I was wondering how a blind person on crutches or a person on a wheelchair
gets around?  Something tells me I should be able to figure out the response
to this question, and yet my own ideas sound ignorant.  Last night was the
second time I almost broke my leg while training in judo.  Actually, after
pulling a dumb little stunt I also felt as though I came close to breaking
my neck, and I don't know.  I figure it would be good to know what options
are available to people in such situations...just in case...  I know the
Seeing Eye has trained some of their dogs to escort people on wheelchairs,
but even this arrangement seems to present its own unique circumstances.

Anyway, thanks for any feedback to my random inquiry.
