He was initially given two to three years to live. The illness gradually robbed him of mobility, leaving him confined to a wheelchair, almost pletely paralysed and unable to speak except through his trademark voice synthesiser (合成器）.Stephen Hawking led an incredible and well documented life. He was referred to in many TV programs, films, and even songs, and appeared as himself in a number of programs including Red Dwarf and the Big Bang Theory.
