SINGAPORE - For Ms Vivian Goh, everyday tasks such as eating, moving around or brushing one's teeth are beyond her grasp.
Titled Bed-ridden And Unstoppable, the book, out in December last year, details her life since birth. But live she did, even if the early loss of her muscles meant she was never able to walk, she slowly lost her hand functions as her muscles atrophied and she was eventually unable to sit up. Ms Goh is able to speak and uses a laptop to communicate online. She surfs the Net and replies to messages with an eye-driven communication device called Eyegaze. The sensor uses infrared radiation to detect her eye movements across an on-screen keyboard.
May God continue to pour out his mercy and blessings upon you
