What devices can help someone with Parkinson's disease communicate?

If you have Parkinson’s disease, these devices can be beneficial for spoken communication:Speech amplifiers can be helpful to people with Parkinson's disease who have a weak voice, throat, or chest muscles, partially paralyzed vocal cords, or diminished lung capacity. Speech amplifiers are like portable public address systems; they can improve one-on-one and group communication by allowing the speaker to use her normal tone, yet amplified so that listeners can hear the voice better. Some amplifiers are pocket size and some have handheld or headset microphones.

Use communication tools. Go Talk is an easy-to-use, portable communication tool that allows the user to call for help or make simple requests with the touch of a button. It records up to 36 messages (9 message keys with 4 distinct levels) for a total of 6 minutes recording time.

A record lock eliminates accidental erasures, a level-lock option prevents unintentional level changes, and built-in-key guards help users select the right message. It is easily programmable in any language, and it operates on two AA batteries (included).

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.
