Where do you live? I'm asking because there might be some assistance you can get from non profit organizations that wouldn't require you to leave home. Just a thought

This is something they should provide, or, if need be, they can send you to a rehab center, or you can go to one, to take classes on stuff like this. Just a thought. Another thought is this: Did, or do, you attend a school for the blind? Although they should teach these skills, they unfortunately quite often do not. --- Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jessica" <[email protected] To: <[email protected] Sent: Monday, January 23, 2012 6:03 PM Subject: Re: [CnD] cutting food I can not get help from a rehab teacher. sent from my BrailleNote ----- Original Message ----- From: Allison Fallin <[email protected] To: Cooking in the Dark <[email protected] Date sent: Mon, 23 Jan 2012 17:42:36 -0600 Subject: Re: [CnD] cutting food Hi Jessica, I know how hard it is, particularly as a teenager, to not be worried about how things look. Your concern reminds me of a story my husband tells. When he was in his late teens, his older brother urged him to use a cane or dog. He was reluctant, because it would make him look blind. As his brother said: "well, you are blind, and people can see that." Once he thought about it, he knew that was true. I came in late on this thread, so you may have answered this. Can you get any help from a rehab teacher? It's hard to have family members teach you, at least it was for me. One further thought. Given the state of the airline industry right now, you won't have to worry about cutting food on a plane. You never have to cut peanuts, assuming you even get those. Lol.
