NO, but my sight does not really help and I read braille and travel with a 
cane always!  Heather

  Well, that sounds bad!  Here in Texas, you can open a case six months 
after moving here!  I know some states like Louisiana run out of money at 
june  or something, they have to wait till the fall to get more money to run 
the services!  Do you havea perkins brailler or a slate and stylus?  I know 
our NLS program here in Texas used to lend the braillers out from the 
library!  Did you contact the local NFB chapter, it helps to have support to 
justify what you need! You can get a free cane from the NFB.  I know hadley 
gives out free abacuses when you take the course but I don't know if they 
give out slates or not!  Heather

  Hi Heather,

       Thanks for answering.  I have started a case with the State 
Department
  and asked for cane and technology training.  Of course, they claim they 
have
  no money, and are turning almost everyone away.  And all who are unable to
  work in a paid job, which is most people, unless they live in a city, due 
to
  transportation issues.

       I do have Braille on my list of Hadley courses to take.
