why is she not using her cane?  Do you know that there are many different 
types of canes?  Where do you and her live?  It be good to find other blind 
kids or adults that live in your area to help you and her with this.  It be 
best to have a straight cane so it is there all of the time and not put it 
away.  I am blind and live in Seattle Washington area.  I work on computers 
and member of nfb  I go to Newman center prince of piece chapel catholic 
church near the university of Washington in Seattle.

Hello All:

Thank you to all those who have already responded.  I appreciate the 
comments, suggestions, and info and/or links.  Currently, my daughter is 
unable to use her cane, and unable to read braille.  So, braille bibles 
aren't going to be of any help.  What we've been doing, is having her older 
sister attend the service with her as a sighted guide.  However, Bek would 
like to get away from having "big sis" do this.  On the other hand, she 
really doesn't want a buddy either.  And, she's uncomfortable just going by 
herself, as am I only because she's not using her cane right now.  There are 
stairs and winding hall ways to get to where she is supposed to be each 
Sunday morning.  I wish there were a blind adult to "show her the ropes" so 
to speak and help her and the group she's in become more acclimated, and Bek 
more independent.  For now, I guess I'll stick with her big sis guiding and 
helping her.

Thanks again,Lisalisadee1063 at hotmail.com"I can do all things through Christ 
who strengthens me."(Philippians 4:13)
