Nowhere to be found

Additude, the magazine that helps those with attention deficit with various strategies, included a list of how to stop losing things. The list,https://www.additudemag.com/how-to-stop-losing-things-simple-rules-adhd/, had the idea of placing the bright tape on items to avoid misplacing them. This may be an idea for my father.

” I can’t find my Bible,” he mentioned at our recent Labor Day visit.

” No problem, Dad, I will find it,” I confidently answered. However, as I searched through his small room, it was nowhere to be found. Seeing his iPad, though, sparked an idea.

Taking it back outside where we usually sat, we spent time showing him how to utilize his iPad to read the Bible. Changing the font, the screen background and the ease of reading without having to turn the pages filled him with amazement. “This is really something!” he muttered to himself.

Inspired by our “lesson”, he continued to investigate the new discovery. We left our visit, thankful for technology and the many ways it can help those with disabilities.
