When I am not using my white cane or guide dog as my eyes, I must rely on another person to be my “sighted guide”…
This means that, as I hold on to my companion’s elbow, they lead me around obstacles and along a safe, clear path.
At least, that is the intention!
In this way, I can navigate by feeling how the other person moves as well as by relying on their verbal directions and cues.
