Google Docs in Google sheets seems to work best when the virtual cursor is turned off Jaws really should do this for you automatically, but you have to have both screen reader support and braille support enabled in your Google Docs and Google sheets settings.
There is a menu bar that you activate by pressing old F on a keyboard and moving around and finding the Accessibility menu </div>
