Kathleen, There are some one-handed keyboards available also. One is called the half-qwerty, one called the Bat and also one called the Frog Pad. All of them work well with Jaws. The one I prefer is the half-qwerty which can be used by either left or right hand.

Millhoff Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2007 5:53 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] advice for a student sought Hi, Due to a tbi, a high school student of mine in almost totally blind and has use of one hand. He has learned some computer basics and the use of JAWS, though has some ways to go with this. He has trouble because of his limited detxterity. I would like him to rely less on his para, and hope to get some advice from someone on list here. Somoe of the functions which require pressing two or three keys simultaneously are the biggest problems. I've told him I'm sure there are blind people using JAWS who have use of just one hand, but I'd like to share any and all suggestions.
