Thanks for the compliment. I have been writing so much lately that I feel tapped out. It took me a while to write this release in the right way, but it finally got done.

Regards,

Our exhibit hall will showcase various sponsors offering products and services that help blind people live the lives we want. During Friday afternoon we will hold seminars on various topics such as exploring ways to address the needs of underserved developmentally disabled blind adults, a blind students' seminar, and a seminar for parents of blind children. A complete agenda is available at www.nfbmo.org<http://www.nfbmo.org/>.

"We know that blindness does not hold us back from living the lives we want. This convention is an opportunity to explore what blindness is and how blind people can thrive at work, school, home, and in the pursuit of other interests," said Shelia Wright, President of the National Federation of the Blind of Missouri.
