I wouldn’t be a very good disability-related blogger if I didn’t say anything about this. “Former Rugby League player Rob Burrow has recorded a CBeebies Bedtime Story to broadcast on the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.[today] The former Leeds Rhinos player, who lives with motor neurone disease (MND), used an eye-controlled computer to read the story.” As an AAC user, of course I think this is fantastic news. It seems like people who use alternative forms of communication are slowly getting a bigger and bigger profile, and having someone like Burrow read the Bedtime Story, like so many megastars before him, can only help that. Surely this is a good sign that AAC is becoming more and more ‘normal’.
