Her life was all about books. She was a librarian and loved to read. That same service you described was offered to her. She jumped at it. She "read" the books and... started a book club with her sighted friends. The services available to the blind are tremendous. The Lion's Club is dedicated to providing services. When she arrives home they will even come and help her to navigate and make plans to being able to resume doing simple things that we all take for granted. Hopefully her sight will return to some degree. You are all in my thoughts.

I find myself drawing so much strength from you and your mom and the rest of your family, and when I go for more than a day without reading your updates, I feel that something is missing. I am so amazed by your honesty, resiliency, and strength, and your willingness to invite all of us into such a personal journey is a gift that I hope will come back to your family ten-fold through well-wishes, positive intentions, and love. Thinking of each of you every day... Best, Libby RapkochAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
