[nagdu] Guide dog injured on escalator

[Steve Johnson]

Cindy, that is a great question, and I have often wondered this myself if 
something were ever to happen to my guide.  has anyone ever used FMLA while 
their guide was ill or out of commission for an injury etc?  What makes 
sense to us, may not hold so unless it has actually been "tested".

I will check with our State Department of Workforce Development just to see 
what they would say, as well as with our DBTAC.

Steve
