Greetings,

The best cane, I believe, is the long-white, taught to blind users the old-school way.  However, since we can't get away from technology, I thought you might like to know that the Dentech cane exists.  I don't agree with its use and its claims.  We are the best judges of our surroundings, and we control our environment with the knowledge and wisdom imparted to us from experience.  No amount of technology can ever replace that.

All the Best,
Milena

Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
