My Mother ultimately went to the books.

BTW, re books on tape: since my Mother is deemed legally blind in NJ, she qualifies for the State's incredible program for books on tape. At no cost to her, she has her pick of many taped books (she worked with them to set the criteria for authors/books) in the State's library, which they send to her in the mail ... and when she is done, she simply drops it in the US mail, then gets more books. NJ also provided her the machine needed for listening to the books. All of this is at zero cost to her. It is a lifesaver for my Mother, since she loved to read.

NJ also provided a case worker to help her deal with the eyesight problem re everyday activities, really an Occupational Therapist. They were very helpful in ways I could not even have imagined. NJ Division for the Blind rocks!!!!

If you haven't, you may want to check to see what is available in the State where your sister is.
