Updates from Huehue....

It's been a while since we have posted updates, but it does not mean that Mirna has stopped working on EE. On the contrary, she continues to work very hard every single day in order to take the most advantage of the system.

Gabriella has been sending us weekly updates on her progress, that while is still slow, it continues to be encouraging and motivational for Mirna and everybody around her. Over the last weeks she struggled a little bit on maintaining the mouse on a fixed location on the screen, but after some adjustments to the "radius" option on the EE system, based on Gabriella's reports, Mirna has been able to have much better control of this feature. Also, we have been told that she has been able to gain lot of control on both directions (horizontal/vertical) and that the electrode setting is the most time consuming activity.

Mirna continues to be very motivated by the system and has been practicing on using the keyboard application as well as the phrase application. She has not been able to fully control the system to begin typing phrases on her own, but she has been concentrated mostly on achieving a high degree of accuracy before the applications are put to full use.

Please continue to pray for her progress and at the same time, Mirna and her family continue to be thankful for having the opportunity to use this system and everybody involved in its development and its distribution.

May God bless you all for your constant support and interest on knowing about Mirna's progress.
