My own son has cerebral palsy and when I think what this technology could mean for him, how they are hoping one day to make it possible for communication, it almost brings me to tears. To actually be able to know what my child's thoughts are... again words cannot describe how that makes me feel.<br />We just had a visit to Bloorview last week to reconnect, and I asked to be connected with writing and communication aids, I'm hoping that perhaps we'll be able to get a chance at this also.Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00387669054450457077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447392662850613354.post-91277897509609072312010-05-12T16:28:05.094-04:002010-05-12T16:28:05.094-04:00Hi "Anonymous",

(My son who is blind said he always wanted to invent a car that drives itself. I just saw that General Motors will have a small electric car that drives itself with lasers and an advanced GPS! AMAZING!)<br />Lindsey Petersen5 Kids With Disabilitieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08609530174946427058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447392662850613354.post-3088815623156330232010-04-07T19:24:03.950-04:002010-04-07T19:24:03.950-04:00Wow.
