Jayna Doll
Our needs expert
Our needs expert, Jayna, is a cheerful middle school student with hemimegalencephaly, a rare brain condition that led to a surgery to disconnect the right half of her brain. These conditions have now finally caused Jayna to live with partial blindness and hemiplegia, a weakness on her body's left side.
This project idea developed when one day after school, Jayna came home on the bus crying, saying that classmates had been bullying her. However, she wasn't able to completely describe her feelings and describe the issues and pull them from her memory.
This application will hopefully be a way to keep Jayna in communication with her mother throughout the day, and will notify her mother when she finishes certain tasks and how she is feeling throughout the day.
