Indra's Headmouse and Virtual Keyboard softwares can help in the therapy of cerebral palsy patients

 TADI ALERT:

When I see people with cerebral palsy, I can't help but feel the difficulty they and they're families have been going through.  I know that since a cousin and a friend's son are in such situation.  But while they face such challenge, I also know that they are blessed.  I believe that while these kids may need more attention from their parents, they also give so much joy. 

So when I heard about a technology that will help children with cerebral palsy, I can't help but get curious and appreciative of the initiative.
