But there is hope for me,
My condition is progressing very slowly. I have already lived a lot longer than anyone thought I would. My symptoms started over 15 years ago...
I can't speak, i use 2 computers, a Franklin and a DYNAVOX, they speak for me. The Dynavox is a touch screen computer with windows 7, wifi internet, and amazing comunication software thats speaks for me. It also has a feature, an eyegaze, that allows me to use the computer, with my eyes, if and when I need it. It attaches to my wheelchair.
I still walk a short distance, with a walker. I need help dressing, in and out of bed, showering...
I am very happy...
I have an electric wheelchair, a laptop computer with DSL and WiFi, Cable TV, and Netflix. So I have all I need to be happy.... I have lots of good help.. I live in a very nice health care center,
were I'm well cared for, which frees the burden on friends and family...
You can find me on Facebook most of the time playing poker and other games...
