    He was a beloved principal. He is a father of four, and grandfather of 17, and counting. And now he is stranded in a quiet corner of the pandemic, unable to do much more than blink, after a Toronto hospital decided an iPad was too much danger, and work.https://www.thestar.com/opinion/star-columnists/2020/05/04/tommy-was-a-beloved-principal-he-is-now-a-patient-shuffled-to-a-corner-of-the-pandemic-cut-off-and-stranded.html …

        Thank you for writing this story. Tommy was my teacher way back in Gr 8. Today, We are all learning to compromise; maybe this hospital can find a way to provide comfort for his family.

        My brother has ALS. I can't imagine him not having access to his computer. It's how he communicates. I know we're in the middle of a pandemic, but perhaps someone could arrange/teach him how to use eye-gaze software thus "justifying" the need? This is just so heartbreaking.
