Hi Rosita
Thanks for the info re pledgebank. In my husband's family there is a genetic eye problem called Leber's and two of his brothers lost their sight, one at 16 and the other at 40, and all the female members of the now extended families, through the female line, are carriers, so I know a little bit about the issues of eye disease. Anyway my purpose in writing is to give you a contact that may be useful to you in getting the braille reader at a good price. My brother-in-law Ian Cochrane who lived in London, was the one who lost his sight at 16, died a couple of years ago, and he had a very good friend there called Ibby Kharbari who specialised in all sorts of communications devices and IT, for the blind, so if you want to know more go to his website www.moving-mountains.com or you can call him on 07017414141 and hopefully he will be able to help. He
is a lovely man and very helpful. If you decide to speak to him, pass on my best wishes.
I think this email may go to the whole group, as I couldn't find a way to send it directly.

Thankyou Sylvia,
I know Ireland well and I have spent much time there. WIth regard to
the list for Quechua can everyone who wants to go on the list please
email me. Also I am looking for people to help with these two
projects of mine. Not related to the group particularly but would be
grateful of any help. The first one is not really related to the
group but I have posted it here anyway in the hope that I may find
some help. (This is also the reason I have been offline for a long
time)

The second one is related to the group in a way. As i plan to build a
retreat where those that are interested in our path may learn for
free in the peace ajnd quiet of a Llama farm. This will also include
other visually impaired people as I have several people in the
braille group I am teaching that are interested.

I have to find 100,000 people. (Thats a lot of people) and hopefully
this can be accomplished within a year. My path has always been to
share my knowledge with those who want to learn and mot to charge for
it. Thankyou for intoducing yourself sylvia.

Having made some life changes, I also do bodywork therapies. For
many years I have had a great interest in the Hawaiian spiritual
philosophy of Huna, and have trained in the UK and the Hawaiian
islands in Lomilomi massage. My site www.spiritofaloha.co.uk. This
year I'm studying for a Diploma in Reflexology so will soon be a
qualified practitioner. It looks like I'm moving in the direction of
helping people heal through hands on bodywork, although I never would
have imagined it.
