[nagdu] a cane and dog discussion

[Julie J.]

I wanted to clarify that I don't think either group cane users or dog 
users is more or less independent.  My point about motivation is 
strictly related to a person's initiative to be independent, be that 
with cane, dog, electronic gadget, human guide or other means.  I think 
if you want to go and do things, with whatever tool works for you, then 
you will figure out a way to make that happen.   It's the people that 
sit at home and wallow in pity, choosing to have others wait on them, 
that disturb me greatly.
