Nancy, don't know about MCI but Sprint will take proof of disability from a
blind organization. Now this only applies to local information and doesn't
exempt you for long distants calls.

They tell me that I have to have proof from a
doctor, and that's $30 or $40 or more just to
have him tell me I'm blind!!! I'm on MCI, and
they're not local, anyway. Don't know if they do
this or not, but this is handy to have in case
one needs it! Thanks anyway, definitely
appreciate it.
