Virtual Reality and Accessiblity
Have you heard of Virtual Reality?
The most common access to Virtual Reality is the Samsung Galaxy Gear. This kit consists of a headset that you put your Samsung phone in (shown in video below) and then put that head piece on. This form of technology has the ability to take you anywhere in or out of this world, using the Samsung phone screen.
My first experience with Virtual Reality, or VR, was this Samsung. It is almost like putting on goggles that give you a 360 degree view of any image or video the phone is displaying.
When I put on the VR Gear, I saw a video of a National Forrest. It was incredible, I felt like I was really there. I was amazed that I could go anywhere I wanted with this VR, which meant that anyone else can too. Even someone in a wheelchair or someone who is bed bound. It was like a light bulb turned on in my brain. And I was not alone!
Watch the video below from USA Today, where Tim learns about VR and tries it out!
My favorite quote from Tim was,
" Everywhere is Accessible! "
That's the beauty of this technology. It is accessible and makes everything accessible!
I hope that the VR experience shows Tim that he can do all the things he dreams of doing. To learn more about Tim and how you can help, go to his GoFundme page.

Throw back Thursday !
Happy Thursday Everyone!
Do you know what that means? Let's have a little throw back.
Here are pictures from the 2014 National Multiple Sclerosis Annual Bike Ride in Frankenmuth. Yes, I said Frankenmuth! It turned out to be a wonderful way to spend the weekend with the family and raise awareness for MS.
Luis has been cycling since he was a teenager! The MS bike rides are a great way to do the things he loves the most, spend time with family and ride bike.
The BFA LLC. family has been involved in the disability community from the very start. After having an overwhelming amount of clients with Multiple Sclerosis, Luis and Gwendolyne knew they had to be involved with MS organizations and community to learn how they could make a difference in a cause that effects too many people they knew.
Have you participated in any bike rides, walks or other events to raise awareness/ funds for an organization close to your heart?
