[Nfbf-l] VR Plan and goal

[RJ Sandefur]

Last time I was in VR, Benita Eden told me Ministry was not a realistic 
goal. "You got to eat," were her precise words. Bobby Howard is trying to 
tell me that's its my choice, and for me not to be fearful, but I just have 
lots of concerns. What type of VR Plan should be dewlaps? Will I need some 
knew assistive technology, such as a Braille note for taking notes while I'm 
on the go? Not only, isn't their a cirtian time by which you must be 
employed? Their is a church in Okeechobee which is with out a pastor, but 
they are not taking resumes at this time. I still need some orientation and 
mobility, and some independent living skills training. I'm under IL now, and 
Steve my instructor, said if I switch to VR, my mobility will not be 
effected. The chairman of the deacons at the church without a pastor, has 
told me Steve and I could train there. RJ
