Quadstick and gaming PC for disabled gamer

Donation protected

Hello, my name is Trellis Blanton. I'm a 34-year-old man from Mississippi. I suffer from Arthrogryposis, an illness which has fused all of my joints together since birth, leaving me wheelchair-bound. I also suffer from a type of degenerative muscle dystrophy. Despite the challenges I have had growing up and continue to face, I have not let these things hold me back in life and I do not intend to start now.

 

Gaming is one of my passions. Being wheelchair-bound, it has allowed me to explore the world and put myself into the shoes of those leading lives I could only dream of. Due to my illness, it has been incredibly difficult to play traditional games, but I have always found a way!

 

Most recently, I used to play games by laying on the floor and using my two fingers and face with a regular controller, but last December a shoulder surgery took away the usage of those fingers and I can no longer play games by conventional means.

 

Luckily there are options out there that will allow me to game again such as the Quadstick (http://www.quadstick.com). Unfortunately, the device and peripherals needed for it to operate, along with the computer I would need to play again are expensive and I have very little income.

 

Gaming isn't the only reason I'd want the Quadstick in my life. I plan on going back to school to finish my master's degree, and that kind of mouth controller would help me a lot over these next four years.

 

Needless to say, this equipment would change my life in ways I can hardly dare to dream of. With your help, I can make those dreams a reality! Even if it's just a prayer, I would still be happy because I know all things are possible through Jesus Christ.

 

Please consider donating any amount. I thank each and every one of you for the prayers and donations. This tool will add so much to the quality of my life and make things so much easier.

 

If you would like to see how I used to game, check out the video below. Thank you!
