              Hi, I'm Eddie.
              Started with wobbly left ankle in Nov 2020. Diagnosed 22 Oct 2021, confirmed by 2nd opinion 4 days later.
              Full time powerchair user. Overnight NIV. PEG'ed but still eating. Voice banked but still talking.
              Still wondering what the future will bring.

                      Yes, and I saw Humans, where they had Synths helping out, that didn't go too well either

                        I wonder if it would cope with someone who is mute and can't use their hands?
