肌肉萎缩性侧索硬化症(ALC)是一种渐进和致命的神经退行性疾病,病人的肌肉会逐渐衰弱、萎缩,丧失运动能力。Adrian Hands是一位ALC病人,在去世前三天他贡献了最后一个补丁,修正了Gnome中一个有9年历史的bug。虽然,当时他已经失去了运动能力,双手残废无法使用键盘。他是用脚在一个莫尔斯码键盘模拟器上输入代码的。

I would like to extend my thanks to the gnome team/community for a great lastmoment with my dad.Adrian Hands (my father) wrote the patch above to improve the usability ofgnome for himself and others. You see my dad was suffering from ALS and hishands were so crippled he could no longer use a keyboard. Thus we used a Darciusb morse code keyboard emulator to help him type. Even the morse code devicewas a struggle as the sensitivity adjustment and positioning of the nice twopaddled key would fall out of whack. I rigged up a pvc cage that wrapped aroundhis knee and fixed remote switches to the cage so that he could use theremaining strength in his legs to operate the Darci morse code device. He usedthis last bit of body movement to write this patch.Here is a photo of him using it:https://picasaweb.google.com/HandsAdrian/ShotwellConnect#5549467460761802914My father passed away yesterday. I went back through my email to find our lastcorrespondence (he was in India for treatment, and I live in Raleigh). I wouldlike to share the email with you.On Sun, Jan 30, 2011 at 12:16 PM, Adrian Hands wrote:> ACCEPTed> COMMITed> RESOLVEd> BOO-YAH!>> commit 0b209b1ff16e863e60a1d86413aa57c5fbde76b0> Author: Adrian Hands > Date: Fri Dec 31 14:34:58 2010 +0100>> Add Copy Image and Copy Path to clipboard functionality>> Fixesbug 78514.>> data/eog-ui.xml | 9 +++++++> src/eog-window.c | 63 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++> 2 files changed, 72 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)I have the coolest Dad in the world!I am so glad that my last comment to my Dad was something like this.Adrian Hands loved free software / open source.

Ian, I am really touched to hear your father's story and at the same timehonored to know that he gave us this wonderful contribution. Please know thatwe are more than grateful to your father and that his contribution and memorywill live with this project, forever.My sympathies,Claudio (eog maintainer)source: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78514#c19我不知道各位是否问过自己“为什么活着?”以及你的答案,这其实是一个能够左右你一生的问题,如果你从来都没问过自己“为什么活着?”,你的人生我认为肯定是苍白和无趣的。我这里借用别人的评语来结束这个文章,并献上我的敬意:passion is what life is all about, people such as your father are true role models!
热爱与激情体现了生命的本质,像您父亲这样的人是真正的楷模,
