[nagdu] a bizaare question

[Angie Matney]

Hi Ron,

My retired guide Glaze still likes to watch out for me when I approach stairs. She knows I can get down them fine; she just needs to make sure I know where they are. I think she has taught Yani to do this. Sometimes, it can take me a while to get 
down a set of stairs; I have to convince both of them that yes, I really do know where the stairs are, and I won't fall and hurt myself. LOL!
