Henry's donors
Note! I spent $925, with the purchase, taxes, boxing at UPS and 3 day shipping, plus a check for $200.
we have taken in almost this much, and paypal has taken its share.
I would still like to collect another $600 to sent him $200 per month until his disability (SSI) kicks in.

Ickie,

When Henry has things set up, ask him if he is having any problems with the mouse movement and control. I have a specially designed mouse for people with mobility problems that I would be more than happy to send him. The one I have is often used for people with restricted arm/hand movement or control and is quite large so you use your whole hand rather than just fingers and thumb, the scroll is a bit different in that rather than a wheel that tilts it is a scluputred 4 way button. I picked up a couple of these when a friend had a stroke and she was unable to control a regular mouse, this thing has been a god send for her.

The only draw back if you want to call it that is the mouse is wired not wireless, but that is not a huge issue IMHO.

If you or Henry think it will be of any use let me know where to send it and it will leave right away.

I will ask, but henry is right handed and nothing is wrong with his right side, he brags how stron his right are is getting.

I ordered dragon natural speaking from the dragon website to get him the latest version.
I also ordered him a cordless mic incase the mic on the new laptop isn't powerful enough. his voice is low in volume. I cannot do anything about his English ac'sent, hehehe, he talks like Peter Noone ( I'm henry the 8th I am)
