Thanks everyone for the
ideas… I contacted Dynavox, they do not have
a
rep in I do not think the patient is well
enough
to travel out of the country for an evaluation in the
States. Again, I appreciate all of the
suggestions. Lisa M. Bruening, M.S.,

[mailto:xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of lisa Hi All, About 9 months ago we met a man from Now, the family is requesting communication device
assistance for devices that speak Spanish. I referred them to Dynavox
Spanish speaking devices/software and Tobii ATI, as well as all of the
various
free and low cost solutions for Spanish speaking software/apps and also
included information via email on no technology i.e., paper communication
boards. Now they are asking for a prescription from the
Cleveland Clinic
for a Dynavox VMax with eyes gaze communication device even though he has
not
had an evaluation or even seen the device. Actually, the email states that
I
recommended it, even though I did not. I recommended they get an
evaluation and try the device. The man has never used a computer or a
typewriter so I have some concerns if he would even want to learn it or use
it. I am not sure how insurance works in So, the question is… where can they go in South
America ( I see the International ALS/MND is in
I also see ISAAC has NOTHING in I do not think he is well enough to travel to I asked my Executive Director to fly me to
