Hi.  The meeting with rehab was unsuuccessful in doing anything 
but made me aware of stuff.  They don't want me to have a Mac 
because they don't feel I should have one.  I understand they 
don't buy macs in Colorado, but my concern about third party apps 
fell on deaf ears.  They want me to do a "situational assessment 
and work adjustment training."  They found an agency for me to 
work at, and they're forcing me to go to mental health group and 
counseling therapies.  Honestly, I'm getting tired of this.  I 
didn't think a mental issue would cause the employment to be the 
top priority.  But I can't exactly go along with Rehab and their 
plans.  They pretty much coerced me into doing the work 
adjustment training, saying that I was "putting the cart before 
the horse" with college and all.  But most sighted normal people 
go to college and get a major.  What am I supposed to do?
Thanks,
Beth
