[nfbmi-talk] Assistance for State Convention

[Martha Venable]

Hi Larry:  My name sf Kathy Georgiou.  I spoke to you several weeks ago re
my sister Martha Venable.  She became blind in July due to Optic
Neuropathy.  You greatly helped me find information re rides /
transportation for my sister in Oak Park, Michigan.

She has still not learned how to use her computer or phone as a blind
person.  I am hoping to find a friend that is willing to attend your
conference with her In Nov.  She will not need to stay at the Hotel as she
lives not far from Southfield if we can find someone to take her.  However
I am wondering about the cost of attending.  She has not yet received SS Di
payments and I am helping her with the bills.

BTW I also emailed merrys at verizon.net to see if she might know of someone
in the Oak Park, MI area that might reach out to Martha with info on
learning to use her computer, cell phone and land line as a blind person. I
would like her to hook up and make some friends who can offer support that
would be helpful. Thank you.
