Neil from the NHS came to add some more telephone numbers to the Possam, speed it up and increase its volume. Maybe now I find it a less frustrating item of equipment.

I am 47 and have been diagnosed with motor neurone disease for eight years now. I have a possum and operate it and my laptop with a simple foot switch. My laptop has software called the grid, which is brilliant, it has allowed me to research my family tree, so far I have got back over two hundred and fifty years without leaving the house. Keep possitive.

thanks Neil. You’re lucky to have survived eight years, one of the very few. We posum, which I also have, drives me crazy but it is an archaic piece of equipment that if I had the money I would have been me as a voice activated — screen device. Fortunately I have one frozen finger which enables me to use the mouse on my laptop so I use the possum as little as possible. Anyway, I’m glad you’re having fun with yours.

Best wishes

Mark
