Yes, it would have been nice if we had learn braille and sign language
earlier. I am currently taking braille classes through Hadley School for the
Blind. I have not found a place where I could learn sign language yet. I
too also wish I had learn these things years ago. </FONT></DIV>

I have no background in keyboard shortcuts at all. I know CTRL C, CTRL
V, and CTRL D. For some reason, whenever I've tried to do others, they
do really strange things. Deleting documents and programs.
<BR> I saved off a couple of lists, and
highlighted ones I think I would use regularly. Like my Dashboard, I
think it's best if I try to learn one or two at a time until I am
comfortable with them. On good vision days, magnification works. On
bad days, I can't see words on the screen.
<BR> I am working on paperwork to get
straining with the state in tech and mobility. My hearing has always
been low, and now my vision is almost gone in the last year. While
waiting on them, I'm learning what I can.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

I'll try keyboard directions a few at a time. I plan to start Braille

three decade ago, it would be so much easier.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><B>Hi Gerardo Corripio, I would be glad to learn
about a Braille display. I have begun this vision loss journey a year
ago. I still have some useable vision. I plan to fully begin
Braille training in January. I only have the Foundation alphabet cards
right now. And I can barely feel the dots. Not sure they are set
up like regular Braille print is. They seem too small to me. I
can't tell the dots apart.<BR><BR>Hi Scott Davert, The more I'm trying, and
waiting on paperwork processing for training, I am building my own learning
process. Thank you for any list that can help me. When I
worked, I was always considered OCD, and would have my entire workday (login
buttons and all) written up so I wouldn't get anything out of order. I
have never used keyboard shortcuts, so better start learning the simple ones
first, integrating them into my daily routine. Thanks, and I will save
and practice using the keyboard this weekend.</B><SPAN
