To the listserv, Barb Rager asked me to forward this message, and I do so with great pleasure: ================================= this keyboard is hideous for someone with parkinsons. no apostrophe that i can find. the z and the y are reversed. and the touch is sooooooo light that if i so much as breathe on a key it prints. but if you are in touch with the listserv perhaps you could share a quick story with them. in a previous posting, quite sometime ago, someone suggested asking for upgrading to bulkhead seats at time of flight, due to the need we have for extra room to stretch etc. well my amazing husband did just that. he goes up to the wicket and says to the lady would you have any room in business or 1st class because you see my wife has parkinsons (as if anyone would believe that, oh yeah theres the funny tremor,i forgot) so sure enough she says ill see whaat i can do. PRESTO 2 business class tickets! wow. but then she says, do you need a wheelchair dear. gag. im standing there thinking just how disabled should i be at this moment. hmmmmmm......... uh, no thanks. ill just take my little hand tremor and funny leg bounce and shuffle off. john and i giggled all the way to our seats until they started feeding us and WOULDNT STOP!! we ate smoked salmon, veal, sirloin tip, ....... we jusst kept eating and eating. we dont drink alcohol, but if we did ..... man! we felt hungover just from the food! it was great. so to the enterprising individual who first suggested this upgrading as a possibility ..... thank you!
