    Hello @arleen and welcome to the community. Do I take it you're visiting us from the States?
    Members will probably be in touch with you, but you might find it useful to visit our 'Disability Aids and Equipment' forum, where you'll find conversations among people who are similarly placed.
    Hope that helps.
    Warmest best wishes,
    Richard

    Just a thought I am sure parents who's children have reading difficulties may require your help or the local primary or secondary school may have something they could offer.

    Hello @arleen,
    I am interested in your view on the chair adaptation and modification market as a chair user yourself. I am interested in that area of design so I would be grateful for any comments. :)

    Hi @arleen hope you are doing well. Do you have any current hobbies? I personally love photography, reading books and crocheting :)
