Thank you for sharing. Being "temporarily abled" is something I have taken for granted all my life. Understanding that I, too, might need assistive technology and accommodations someday makes my work and studies even more relevant. I will remember this term as I continue through school to keep myself in check of how impactful my career could be. I hope you have a smooth recovery.
Thanks for reading AND for responding, Emilee! You and your work in your studies and eventual career will be so impactful to many people, I have no doubt! Keep it going! Let us know how we can help you too!
