So, my sister has had a few issues over the past few months with some falls, then difficulty walking, then eventually being diagnosed with motor neurone disease.
I can barely type it. It's devastating for her and for the whole family.
Her and her husband had all kinds of things planned that they wanted to do, and it's now all come to nothing, she is effectively housebound with not a great deal of time left. We don't actually know how long she has but she's gone downhill a lot very quickly. She's not able to walk and is losing the use of her hands.
Here's the point of this topic - I've been thinking that a relatively cheap way for her to have some experiences outside of her 4 walls would be a VR headset and some VR 'experiences'.
I'm thinking that an Oculus Quest 2 might be the right thing? Am I right in thinking you don't need a PC, it's a standalone thing and costs about £200?
Are there many 'experiences' that don't require controllers, or that a carer could control for her? Any recommendations? How much do these typically cost.
I'm thinking of things like sitting by a beautiful lake, up a mountain, taking some sightseeing tours of cities etc. They were planning to go to New Zealand so something that replicates that kind of scenery would be ideal.
Please, any input on this would be gratefully received. If it's possible, I want to be able to give her a load of info ASAP.
Love you guys
