[Nfbf-l] Question about White Cane Law

[Kirk]

Betty, I thank you for the proper information on this topic! I was curious 
as I know that many of my Veterans that are given walkers  by the V.A. 
receive them already painted on their front legs with the whitelegs with the 
bright  orange bottoms on them for people to realize they are not only 
physically disabled, they are also visually impaired or Blind! I am also 
glad to hear you are feeling better, but like some of us, are always in the 
condition of healing, health wise at least! You keep strong and Take care, 
Your friend, Kirk Harmon

Hi Kirk,  in answer to your question. No her chair does not need to be
marked. It is covered in a separate section of the same statute when talking
of other disabilities covered by the law. I would have to pull up the actual
law to quote the actual section but each law has several sections to it and
the one about the white cane has been amended several years ago with an
additional section covering wheelchairs, walking canes, walkers and I think
something else that I do not recall. I am often reminded since the person
responsible for having the additional language is a member of our chapter.

As for my health, thanks for asking. I am doing a lot better but as with
most of us I have away to go. Just have to keep plugging along.

Your friend,

Betty
