As many of you may know, I am afflicted with ALS, more commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease. It has left me unable to type on the computer or use the mouse with my hands. I still can use the computer with my eye gaze tracker, but it is not optimal for coding.
I am looking for volunteers who would be interested in sitting with me for an hour or so on an occasional basis. If you might be willing and able to do this I would greatly appreciate it. I continue to be active in the Drupal community as best as I am able. The volunteers who help me offer me a lifeline. You can contact me off-list if you are interested.
You can read more about my situation on my blog at http://aaronwinborn.com.
Thank you,
Aaron Winborn

hi Aaron,
I'm not a coder nor do I live in your area but, I'd be keen to help, possibly thru Skype?

Hi Aaron,
I met Chris H. in a bookstore recently and he shared a small part of your story with me. I am a "returning" college student at HACC and plan to transfer to RIT (fingers crossed double right now). I will be attending the meeting this Thursday and hope we get the opportunity to meet. I would be happy to work with you, but must confess I am a new Drupalee so I may be slow. Thanks and have a great day!
