When your loved one is unable to communicate because of conditions such as ALS, Stroke, or non-verbal autism, it’s easy to get frustrated and have your loved one experience a locked-inside syndrome.
We understand what it’s like taking ten to thirty minutes to figure out what your loved one is trying to say. Also, it’s totally normal to worry about their mental health. And you’re not alone.
Contact your local ALS Chapter or speech pathologist for communication devices that can help address these problems. They may even have a VisuALS system available as a loaner!
