Chuck, my son is multi-handicapped and enjoys music, also. Some years ago I used to sit him on the bench at our Lowery organ and let him have at it. It was a slow learning process, but he kept trying until he figured out how to play songs with only small pauses while changing chords. He only has the use of his right arm, so everything had to be done on a slower scale. It was something he took great delight in doing, and we were amazed at how well he actually did. Those days are gone now, and tv is his main interest now, but he still likes to listen to music. We sometimes take him to the practice sessions for the church youth worship team and they let him tap a bongo while they're playing, so everyone has a good time. The kids there are eager to play and if we had a sax, drums, and a banjo, we would have even more learners, but unfortunately, no teachers. I can help with guitar, bass, and keyboards, but stick a drumstick in my hand and I'll try to eat it. I know this is a little off the thread, but what the hey, it's the holiday season!
