I would like to tell you about Steven Hawking. He was born in England  8 01 1942. Both his parents had studied at Oxford. Both his parents had studied at Oxford. When he was 21, Stephen started tripping, dropping items and his speech became unclear. After a series of tests, doctors concluded that Stephen was suffering from ALS- Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis; a disease which paralyzed him and required a speech generating device to communicate.
