Jean-Dominique Bauby wrote the book "The Driving Bell and the Butterfly" by blinking his left eyelid.

At age 43 he suffered a massive stroke.  When he woke up 20 days later, he found that he was completely paralyzed except for his left eyelid.  He wrote the entire book The Driving Bell and the Butterfly by blinking his left eye – the only part of his body that he could move.
