211 is an informational support line that provides information about community resources in your area.

Hear Again, thank you for your translation. I still do not understand some of the post, but that is okay. I know you tried the best you can.

I still do not understand parts of this paragraph. I have highlighted what I do not understand in bold (I wonder if your braille reader can pick up bold print?):

I lost Job but first time, Dirtor of IT, love me, fired him, second, he is red-vision, he like me best than hearing, i got International Award in 2000 at Washington D.C. cancelled US of Pridsent, he went to Camp of David, MD for problem East-Middle.

What does he mean, "red-vision"? That is a term I have never ever heard of. Is that related to blindness?

What does he mean, "cancelled US of President". I do not understand.

If you can't translate/explain, that is okay. I hope someone else can help me with this post. I am still confused.

And, Hear Again, I am happy to hear from you again. I haven't heard from you in quite a while, and I was starting to get concerned. Please update me in PM if you can.

hi lucia,

yes, i'm able to read highlighted statements on my braille display (they are denoted a certain way in braille). i couldn't understand them either which is why i didn't bother to interpret them.

i'm not familiar with red-vision having anything to do with a particular visual condition. the only thing that comes to mind is a condition i'd rather not discuss here on the internet since medical attention is needed should certain symptoms appear.

i'll send you a pm to let you know how i've been doing tonight or definitely tomorrow.

first and foremost, if you're feeling depressed, i would contact your local 211 hotline or crisis number to be referred to a counselor.

from there, i would contact your local state vocational rehabilitation center or the helen keller national center (hknc) for deafblind related resources in your area.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is a 221 hotline?

I can kind of understand that. I am not blind at all, and I can still read subtitles without solid black background, but I find that it is kind of hard, because the picture in the background clashes/blends with the white or yellow letters of the subtitles, causing me to have to work harder to read the subtitles. I prefer closed captions that I grew up with, the same old white letters on black background. Very easy to read, no eyestrain. And I am not even legally blind. I just wear regular glasses, that's all.

Could you explain to me that particular condition in PM? I am just curious and would like to learn. If you still don't want to discuss it in PM, that is OK, I respect that, and I understand.

I look forward to your PM!

it sounds like what rhr is talking about by "red-blind" is a form of color blindness.
