>> What is "Snow White project" ?
It is said that there are hundreds of thousands of people who suffer from locked-in syndrome in the world. They look unconscious and are considered to have no chance of recovery. Until now, they have spent their whole life lying in bed.
However, we have come to recognize that there is a way to regain consciousness and activities like eating, communicating, etc. This project is to glean and spread information on ways to recover (from locked-in syndrome) through communication methods, oral eating, rehabilitation, nursing care, etc.
Everyone, even persons in locked-in state has a thought and has a way to recover. Our goal is to one day make this type of information common knowledge to us all.
Snow White woke up with prince’s love. Like that, this project is filled with love.
