That is really great Steve, I think we have ones touch us also, deeply. It would be a great thread. Hint hint
I consulted with his friend from KFC as I got to thinking after my second visit, yes I went again, and it was much easier, that if such a thing existed as a computer that he could use, how great that would be. Take a trip and never leave the farm. He could do his own banking, like before, he could talk on a phone, or phone a friend with no help, he could read a newspaper, a book, without someone holding it. He could research his condition. Write letters, get emails, etc......I thought, what the heck it could open up a whole new world since his was ripped away.
And they do exist!!!!!.
I have gotten hold of a company, and havent talked on the phone yet, just trying to get an idea of exactly what and how it works, and the cost.
I got to thinking (rare but it happens) what did Christopher Reeve have, Stephen Hawking, etc?
I got his friend from the store to kinda ask in a non chalant manner if he would be interested in something like that and he said H*** yeah, Im bored to tears. So now that the trauma of learning how to live as he has to has settled in, I think hes up for the challenge. I know I can get the money, and my biggest question would be finding a teacher to show him how. Ill keep you posted and if any of you have any knowledge of this, please let me know.
