I often wonder why more people with #SevereME aren't offered AAC services when unable to speak. I know for many inability to look at a screen comes before inability to speak, but everybody has different combinations of impairments. We need more community knowledge of alternatives.

Post-apocalyptic stories where characters are almost the only survivor and are happily driving around many years after the apocalypse by siphoning petrol/gas out of other cars are so frustrating (for many reasons). Please make your stories at least a little believable!.

Here is another example of home-made finger signs and some other strategies used by a person with very #SevereME .

I saw a post a few days ago of someone with #SevereME (posted by family) describing how they communicated with finger taps and small swipes. There was a few photos. Can anyone find it for me?. Searching didn’t help and now am out of energy myself :/.

Ironically - or perhaps fittingly? - I'm too sick to actually listen to this piece but there's an image-based transcript up too. I've love working with @AmbleSkuse when I've been well enough to do it, she does stuff with my words that is so creative and different!.

I wrote to my favourite audiobook narrator to ask if I could pay to have my short poem narrated … and instead he just sent me back a recording of it!. Huge thanks to @StefansEcho (and thanks for saying I could tweet about it too). And sleep well, everyone ❤️.

I’ve been using the sleep poem for 3 months now, either reciting it or listing to a recording I made of myself reading it - which isn’t much fun. So I thought I’d ask someone to record it, and if you’re going to do a thing then aim high, right?.

Sleep hygiene is a huge challenge when one is #bedridden. One of the things my #OT and I came up with to try was to invent a ritual/routine for start-of-sleeping time. So I wrote me a sleep poem….
