[NFBSATX] [NFBT] D Canes now available at NFB Independence Market

[Ruben Rincon, Jr.]

It is also more flexible than other straight canes. I really like it for that reason. I’ve been using the same one for almost 3 years so I’m glad the NFB Independence Market is selling them.

Someone asked about the cane tips. The tips sold by the NFB fit, at least they did the last time I ordered some. It’s been a while because I order a dozen at a time but I don’t think that would have changed.
