[Nfb-seniors] Here is a funny Christmas song that is a spoof on blindness rehabilitation services

[Robert Leslie Newman]

Hi You All

RE: In fun I send this 

 

Below is a Rehab related spoof on the 12 days of Christmas; not sure I've
seen this in the past. I got it off a list that I am on. And send it because
to a former client of, and former worker from within a rehab agency, I found
it to be lyrically clever, and an interesting spoof on Rehab. Yeah, from a
very generous counselor for sure; not someone who is working under an ever
shrinking budget! 

 

 

On the first day of rehab my counselor gave to me a white cane because I
can't see.

On the second day of rehab my counselor gave to me two talking books, and a
white cane because I can't see.
