RJ Why doesn't she learn braille? as and intermediate step. Although I 
do think that as a deaf blind person myself that she should learn 
tactile ASL or at least the manual alphabet. I know that is frustrating 
communicating between the mother as an intermediary but if your 
relationship is going to last she will put the effort into learning some 
alternative communication.
