Multiple recent studies have shown that immersion into gaming helps pain sufferers. Gaming offers a distraction from pain.
But for many crips there are accessibility barriers to gaming. A lack of specialty gaming controllers and games that support currently available devices limit many potential gamers.
So, I will be spending the weekend doing research (ie,. gaming, gaming, gaming) and appreciate any info you may have of games and controllers that have either helped or hindered. Please feel free to email me at mumpy.typepad.com@gmail.com or click on the contact link in the left sidebar. I am beginning a new Gaming Category for upcoming gaming related posts.
