My big question: How can understanding making television remotes help Tim with his everyday life?
What is Huntington’s disease?
Huntington’s disease is a hereditary illness with physical, cognitive and emotional symptoms. Huntington’s disease is caused by a mutation in the gene that makes the protein called Huntington. Huntington’s disease causes cells to manufacture a harmful protein called mutant Huntington. The mutant Huntington protein causes certain parts of the brain to die. As the brain cells die symptoms will appear in each of the three components physical, cognitive and emotional.
Why would a remote help someone with Huntington’s Disease?
A simplified remote would make it easier for someone with Huntington’s’ disease to watch television. This simplified remote control has large buttons and offers basic features making it quick and easy to use. This remote control is compatible with all new generation televisions. The Videotron remote would be a very good idea for Tim because it is simple and very affordable. I think this could really help Tim with watching Television and even with his everyday life because who doesn’t love watching TV for their entertainment. This remote can be found with more information and can be purchased on the website called Videotron. http://www.videotron.com/residential/television/terminals-and-accessories/remotes/simplified-remote
What is the difference between a Videotron remote and a regular remote?
The differences between the Videotron remote and a regular remote is the Videotron remote is more simplistic, easier to use, has less buttons, has larger buttons, less expensive and lighter to hold. Therefore, the Videotron remote would be a good choice to buy for someone with Huntington’s disease as it has so many positive benefits.I see Tim benefiting from using the Videotron remote over using a regular remote.
