I’m sorry. I can’t even imagine how horrible and devastating this must be for you to deal with. I’m just so sorry.

It was nice seeing you out last night. All I can do is give the virtual *hug*. That’s all I got.

Meaning when she’s sitting in the chair, her position looks something like this:

If the tablet is sitting on her lap, whenever he moves her feet to use the trackball the tablet moves. I need to find some sort of lapdesk like thing that can sit on the arms of the chair and allow her to move her legs freely. Or a swing-arm assembly. Something where the tablet isn’t on her lap.

It’s not actually a problem with her feet or the trackball. It’s all positioning.

I’m sorry about this, not like there’s too much to say that wouldn’t be better expressed in person.

I’m not sorry about you writing this, even if it’s extremely sad. Please keep doing it.

I’m sorry.

You’re so amazing, and brave, for being as supportive and involved as you are. Your parents are lucky to have you. You’re in my thoughts.

I’m sorry. I feel stupid every time I find myself so short on words, but I keep wanting to reply so you know we’re reading and listening.

I hope your mom, you and the rest of your family are able to find moments of comfort wherever possible.

I’m sorry that you’re struggling so, Phil.

Now, you know me and so you know that when I’m faced with discomfort, I try to fix problems. So while your struggles are in my thoughts and my wishes are that things could be easier for you, I’m going to focus on the fixable.

The tablet and the trackball … when you say “she can’t operate the trackball with her feet,” do you mean she’s not capable of it, or that there’s a mechanical issue (cord’s too short, etc.)?

I keep wanting to say something comforting or uplifting… but I don’t have the words. I’m sorry.
