I need to figure out how I can fly to a convention.

Is there a way I can hire a CNA to go with me for 4 days, you can lift me in 
and out of bed and a wheelchair.

This is all new to me, and I'm trying to find out what it would cost for 4 days 
of care and how to even find it.thanks

The device I use, Adap2U, is no longer available. There are some other
options available but I am so use to the customizations I use with this
device that I have not changed, but the other one is a good backup system
for me.

Check my page here for more information.

Yes, I use a sip for a dot and puff for dash. No, I am not a ham radio
operator. I learned morse code by pattern not by sound when I was in rehab
in 1989.

If you are interested in using morse code for computer access I recommend
either the TandemMaster  or the

Hi Jim.

May I ask where you get the sip and puff switches you use to send Morse
code? Also, do you sip for a dot and puff for a dash (or vice versa) or do
you straight key it? Finally, are you a ham radio operator?

Thanks, Greg
