Comunicting with staff and family was most frustrating for several weeks I could only use my eyes e,g 2 blinks for yes and 1 blink for no. Then I was intoduced to the ETRAN board, I imedietly became quite a expert at it but for some it was difficult
to learn.
The way it worked was the person you were talking to would hold the the board close to their face looking at me through the square, I would look at a letter they would look at which direction my eyes were pointing and ask what colour,
I would then look at a coulor which would identify the letter which was writen down it got so that people could guess the word before I finished spelling it saving precious time.
