I’ve been very sick and in the hospital for the past eleven days. I just got home a couple of hours ago. I’m aware of the discussion on making meetings accessible although I’m not current on what all has been said. I have a wireless mic that hooks into the Bluetooth of my hearing aids. Sometimes that’s helpful in meetings, sometimes it is not. Seems to me that back in the days of the teletouch that was more accessible than anything these days. I’ve wondered if you couldn’t set up a computer attached affa Braille display or multiple Braille displays, and then have someone typing what is being said. Not sure if it would work or how realistic the idea is, but it would get rid of the issues of having to be able to hear what is being said. Thanks Jessie for taking over my duties temporarily. Hopefully soon I will be back to what is more normal for me. Thanks everyone for listening. If you’d like to know more of what happened, please feel free to ask, we are family and I’m not all that private.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Warmly,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Doula<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
