I do practice reading with my fingers. It takes a real long time. What is funny is I can read it with my left hand better than my right. I am amberdexterious.

No, I know Braille from when I was in the kindergarten. My boyfriend is sighted and he reads grade one Braille, but he reads it by touch which I am glad to see. Yes, if you can, you should learn to read Braille by touch in case the vision goes completely.

If you are just learning brialle it can be tough especially if you are use to reading with your eyes. I taught myself braille in school because my twin sister is totally blind. But I sheet and use my eyes. It does take time though.

I agree with that one, Karen. Now I am trying to learn all alone how to foremat Braille, and I can't seem to understand how to foremat it so my Brailling isn't coming out right. How in the world can people just pick up a book and learn from it? I have to be taught.

Father in Heaven thank you for your love for Lyn and thank you that you except her for she is. Please give her the peace that passes all understanding.

I too have ROP and the offul learning curve it slows you way down. I believe that is part of the reason some of the people did not hire me. I could do the work but was slow sometimes.

Dear E-church members,

I just wanted to pop in today and ask for prayer and also begin a discussion with any of you who might be going through something similar. As most of you know, I used to work at Verizon Wireless, 5 years in Ohio and 2 years in Florida. To no avail, i tried to stick in there, but they would change things so that JAWS wouldn't work, and then not just that, but each time I would mention anything to them they didn't hear my voice. Now I have left since July because of the emotional stress of the high pressured call center. I felt there was nothing else that I could do. Now I am trying to look for jobs, and Division of Blind Services will not help me. They made my therapist write a letter to say what kind of work I could do, and because she said no call centers they said they can't help me. So now, I tried to find jobs and whenever they find out that we are blind they do not wa nt you. I just don't understand that. I have been in therapy since around March or May just trying to get through all of this stuff. I pray and ask the Lord to help me through, I need deliverance from past junk, and I just can't seem to let go because eah time when I think that i have let go, something comes up to tell me that I'm stil a failure. I know the devil is a lier and there is no truth in Him, so why do I still insist on carrying this, and why cant' I get anything worthwhile? I just have a high school education and I know that's a lot of the trouble, but I tried school and I have too much of a learning curve to keep up. How many have ROP, and have you had these problems like with the learning curve? Just pray. I don't want to get on a tangent, but this group should be to lift each other up in the Lord, and that'swhat I need now. I'm pretty down in the dumps now. If anyone wants to call me and talk, you can reach me at: 813-998-2070. Thanks for listening. ound last May or April and I am better. However, I have
