All my frustration at militants probably helped me to feel joy at this incredibly awesome story that I hope you too will enjoy.

A father has a daughter who has Cerebral Palsy. It is very difficult for her to communicate her needs to her parents, and this is a source of much frustration for all parties. But Dad is clearly a creative thinker who sees this as something he can work through. He looked around for something for his iPhone that would help, and when he didn’t find a solution, he built one called iComm.

Now, his daughter has pictures on the iPhone (featuring herself, to make them clearly understandable to her) that depict various activities. She can point out pictures using her eyes that reflect what she is wanting, things like food or toys, etc., and the iPhone announces what she is wanting.

Frankly, that’s just a beautiful story of technology and creative problem solving coming together to enrich a life, and in this case, potentially enrich thousands of lives. To coin a phrase from the A-Team’s Hannibal, I love it when a plan comes together.
