Hope I can talk

From mom:

Yi did not have a voice before March 2022. He's a 9-year old boy who is minimally verbal and autistic. "Hope I can talk" was the first thing that he shared with us when we finally found a method that allows him to express himself. See video below: 

To read more about our journey and how Yi got from having no words to be able to express himself and now has his own blog, see the story HERE.

My Brother

Lang is my older brother. He is eleven years old. I really like him. He is the best brother ever! He really loves me. He never complains no matter how my behaviors are. I am very fortunate to be his little brother.  I wish I can play with him.  I wish I can talk to him.  I know I can!  One day I will make him proud!  One day I will be an inspiration.  One day I will change the world.

I started reading Magic Tree House series in March. It is the first time that I am reading books that are appropriate. It makes me feel both sad and wonderful. Jack is at my age. I can see myself in him. I am very proud of myself for being courageous. I am confident that I will achieve something great!

Today I went to see Lenae. I was very excited. I was nervous. I worried that she might be disappointed. I didn’t know if I had made enough progress. I was really worried that she could be disappointed about my progress. I was so relieved at the end that I was able to show her what I could do. I am so happy. I was able to spell on the iPad. I was able to type and speak. I was able to write and speak. I was able to hold the letterboard and spell. I am so proud of myself.  I love you mom. I am grateful for having you there to always push me and believe in me. I really appreciate it. I am so ecstatic.
