Why does this site have no menu?

When I was rehabbing from my AVM in 2000, I had extreme apraxia and aphasia and could only understand pictures. Worse, I couldn't talk, tie my shoes, speak, and for a while I couldn't walk. But during those dark days, I wanted sites that I could get brain information from that didn't require reading. This is the site I envisioned , and needed years ago and hope someone out there finds it a comforting way to navigate the information. Click around to look around, or you can click the museum map on the right.

I built this site to help people. Most of the site’s content is comprised of notes and links I’ve scrounged up over the years and kept as reference material to make sense of my own situation. I had a parallel project of documenting my own story through hand-scrawled notes and artwork but couldn't merge the two projects into one site that made sense. That’s why I decided to use and design a digital museum that could be split into two wings. Many people are interested in what happened to me, others just want to know what the hell and AVM is.
