Hi! My name is Toni. I was born in 1991, in Alberta. I have Cerebral Palsy from when I was born. That is why I can’t walk and need more help sometimes. I have a special wheelchair that helps me to stand up and move. People have trouble understanding my speech.
I got my first communication device in grade 4. It was a Vanguard. It was very heavy. We had to carry it everywhere! In grade 7, I got a Vantage and now I have an Accent 1000. The Accent is lighter and it has the internet! I can look at my email and Facebook and keep in touch with my friends and family and my boyfriend!
The Accent helps me to talk to everyone in the community.
Thank you CAYA for my Accent!
