Tim the honest answer is I don't know for totally blind people. It might be a 
good idea to try one. Go and ask someone you know if you can try theirs.

Are the paperwhites accessible? I didn't know if someone who might be totally 
blind could use one, I'm thinking not, but hey I had to ask. Take care guys.

It sounds like you're capacitive touchscreen on your first generation 
Paperwhite may not be registering your touches or gestures correctly.  Try a 
screen cleaner and see if that helps.  Also, various areas of the screen are 
designated to do different things.  Don't take this the wrong way, but it's a 
question that needs to be asked.  Have you read the Paperwhite user guide?  I'm 
guessing you did a long time ago, but as I said before still needed to ask a 
question because I don't know what your experiences is with the Kindle 
Paperwhite.  i've had various Kindles since 2009 and now I have the Kindle 
Paperwhite 2, and it does take a little getting used to with the touch 
interface, I'm still having to think about what I do as I'm doing it.

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this but I will do it anyway. 

I have a Kindle Paperwhite, the previous generation one. What happens is that 
when I read and tap the screen sometimes the Kindle goes from 91% to something 
like 24%,. This does not happen often as it used to after I contacted Amazon 
and spent something like an hour trying to fix it. If I turn the top left hand 
side it goes back to the correct place.
