Since your birthday is officially over I'd like to bend this to a Thank You Allen thread for just a tic, if I may. I was literately hanging on by a thread. Totally at my wits end and unable to solve what to me seemed like a very simple problem that was consuming my life and making me most frustrated and unhappy. Despite having a husband who is a computer annalist, despite being advised by a disability assessment service who specialized in communication aids, despite having no less than 5 computers available, from mac to windows lap and desk top, despite spending hours searching for a solution myself and with money not the limiting factor, I was unable to find a good solution for my specific TTS communication needs. No one got it, no one understood what my strengths were and how to play to them and sort something out, for love nor money. Then I asked one question on this forum and you answered with one sentence (okay maybe two or three but I'm not going back to look) and within 2 hours I had the tools I needed, within a week I had a good, fast, portable, user specific and friendly, adaptable, working system in place that reduced my MND stress level by 99%. I did say thank you at the time but I just don't think that is enough, I really want you to understand that your efforts have significantly improved the quality of my life, my relationship with my family and friends and I really want you to understand how much your efforts have impacted me personally. I know I am not alone and there are 100's if not 1,000's of other people out there that could tell a similar story but one to one, once again, let me please say a very inadequate - Thank your for your help Mate.
