How can I make my television easier to use if I have multiple sclerosis?

Here are some ways to make TV more accessible if you have multiple sclerosis (MS): If your current remote controls are too difficult to operate, replace them with a single "universal" remote, which controls your TV, stereo, and VCR. You can find universal remotes where TVs and electronic devices are sold. Take a plain, adhesive-backed label and write the cable channels and their numbers on it.

Then put the label on the back of your remote control, so that you don't have to remember all the numbers or page through a TV program schedule to find what you want to watch. You also might just cut the station list out of the TV section of your newspaper and tape that to the back of the remote. Keep remote controls, TV program schedules, reading glasses, pens, and paper within easy reach wherever you sit by using an adjustable hospital bed table.

You can create your own saddlebag-style holder for your TV and VCR remote control devices out of two hand towels: Select two hand towels that will fit your decor and room colors and sew them together at one end to make one long piece. Fold up each end about 3 to 4 inches, leaving a middle section free to lie on the arm of your chair or sofa. Stitch the sides of each fold to create pockets that will contain your remote controls or TV guide.

If you want, you can divide one of the pockets into two sections -- one to hold a pencil, the other to hold note paper. Consider securing your saddlebag- style holder to the arm of your couch or chair with a few stitches.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
