I find it both challenging and rewarding to communicate. It is something that takes a lot of my time and energy to do. My body and brain both have to focus in ways that take up so much of my brain's power. When I am able to focus my words are rewarding. In this world of communicating through typing it is challenging to find a reliable communication partner. Not only that but you do not always have access to them when you need them. It is a big problem and challenge for schools. My wish is for more people to become trained so more nonspeakers like myself can share our thoughts and knowledge with the world. The greatest reward is when I have the chance to write through poetry or in creative ways. My words show who I am. I love to share my work with the followers on my blog.
Hi Ryan, I wonder what would need to happen to help schools offer this training to more students. Maybe we could get this going. What do you think?
