Good afternoon @bmje1,

 

At Rogers, we are empathetic to situations such as this and I will be happy to work with you to try to find a solution. What kind of device does she have and how does she typically navigate it?

 

Is it at all possible for her to use a screen reader to have it read the text for her if she cannot read the text herself? I understand she has a hearing impairment as well but this may be an option for her: 

 

Get help reading text on a screen - Android - Google Account Help

Hear iPhone speak the screen, selected text, and typing feedback - Apple Support (CA)

 

The options for authentication are found here: Add two-step verification for extra security | Yahoo Help
