VR paid my full tuition, books, loaned me an IBM typewriter, and paid part
of R&B WHEN I WENT AWAY TO school. also paid for note takers and readers,
and a phonak ear so i could hear my teachers. my dad was a prof at csulb,
he and mom saw some private patients but were not rich. I think being on
ssi helped too. so, check into it.
glad you are alive and kickin'.
