Just as a reminder, in case you just have a really recalcitrant (spelling?)
councelor, you have the right to take any decision that is made and ask
that a supervising committee reconsider any such decision. The only thing
to watch out for is that you don't make the councelor so mad that he/she
refuses to do anything else for you if you win. This isn't supposed to
happen, but we're dealing with humans here.

Having said all that, hopefully you do have a good counselor and can get
what you need. I'm not meaning to be discouraging, that has just been my
experience,.

Subject: [Braillenote] asking rehab for a BN
> Hi, folks: Anita, I have been reading this thread with a great deal of
interest, and I finally decided to weigh in on the subject.
> First, I am assuming that, when you asked your rehab counselor for a BN,
it was part of an ongoing discussion with him/her about a plan for
employment, or education, or, perhaps, just living more independently. What
I'm getting at is that you can't just drop the bomb on the person, that you
want a BN. Of course, I'm sure you didn't ad that.
> The reasons you gave were good. You might also add that, with the new
upgrade, you'll be able to go on "secure" web sites, which will enable you
to do things, such as banking.
> Now, you mentioned that he said he wouldn't approve the purchase of a BN,
because you have a BNS 640. Well, that's a cute little notetaker, but it
really is pretty out-of-date. I hope you get what you want, but, as you ask
for it, be sure to really have your thoughts together, so they can't argue
with you. God bless. Bob and Maxy-wax
