[nfb-talk] Teaching Braille, to the elderly

[Joshua Lester]

She, and her husband are in the same room, and he reads the Bible to her.
This is sad, because, what if (God forbid,) he dies, before she does?
Who will read to her, then?
I'll see if she has a recorder, and all of that, in the next two weeks.
My friends, go twice a month.
Blessings, Joshua
