Hi Diane

If you have specific questions I would be more than happy to answer
them. If I don not have the answer Ican consult with the other VI's
in my group. Also, there is an abundance of information on low
incidence disabilites on the University of Colorado's webpage. That
address is www.unco.edu Many of those folks have been in the field
for ever and may be able to offer support to you as well.

Can you tell me what state you are from?
