White cane recall!! If you have received or purchased a white cane within the last year, IMPORTANT, PLEASE Read. In a news brief issued today, by the Department of Health and Human Services, all white canes, no matter the style, manufacture or distributor, are being recalled. Apparently, there is a chemical used in making the canes which is hazardous to your health! If the canes are exposed to liquid, a light coating of slime will appear on your palms. This slime is very toxic and spreads when exposed to water or any substance which is water based. The Department of Health and Human Services has set up a link with instructions on where to send all white canes and how to receive a new one.
