I was trying to figure out how to add the wording for grandparents, but then I didn’t want everyone yelling at me to say, well you need to include aunts, uncles, cousins etc. So, that was kind of why I made the notes portion at the bottom of the document, and it stated that we would be of assistance to any other relative or caregiver who was blind. I appreciate your advice. If you could think of a creative way to add in everyone else, please feel free to share
