    Adaptive Devices Confusion

    Ok, so my brother is back in the nursing home from the hospital. I've been looking at all the adaptive type things we can use, but it's kinda confusing in total. He has a computer, and an onscreen keyboard. We're working on getting the text to speech part going, as well as a better mouse or...
