Hello fellow listservers,

Anyone have any advice for the situation below?

Thanks,

-----------------

 

 

I just spoke with the wife of a PALS with bulbar onset.  Communication is difficult as his speech is severely impaired and he is also blind.  Arms and hands are not affected.  Do you know of any speech generating devices that would work for a pALS who is blind?  He is a veteran and could obtain a device through the VA; however, the VA where he is being treated has not been able to suggest one.  They provided an iPad with large letters, but the letters are not large enough to be functional for him. 

 

Thank you for your advice.  I know that you often work miracles with some great product suggestions J.
