leayahri I have discussed this with a few of my friends that are completely blind and they say that there are no good online schools for the blind for that age range. Where do you live? If I know that I can suggest resources and schools for your son.

Can anyone spell??

leayahri @leayahri (23) • United States 25 Dec 06

In a lot of the discussion boards there are more than enough grammatical and spelling errors to send my screen reading software crashing. How many of you have a problem with all of the grammatical and spelling mishaps made by...

leayahri That's great! I wish that everybody's relationship was as strong and devoted. I do hope that this situation never happens to anyone, but am glad to know that there are couples like you and your husband are out there to stick together.

leayahri Just to let you know, I am blind. I was just curious about how people would handle it. If they would stay or if they would leave. My husband has said many times how he contemplated for a long time whether to stay or leave and I was just wondering if anybody...

speaking braille to blind person

here2earn @here2earn (46) • United States 12 Dec 06

remember that part where Peter speaks braille to that blind guy and then he laughs? Can somebody please translate what was said.

leayahri you really can't "speak" braille. It is a form of writing and the dots are all arranged in different patterns. you can only tell someone a few letters or so before you come to a letter that has a dot above another or below another.
