Nonspeakers do not need permission to communicate.
They need law to stop standing in their way.
Senator Fahy: Reverse the language.
Restore the bill.
Do the right thing

“Will my nonspeaking autistic child ever speak?” is a search-bar question. Under it sit two fears: fear for the child’s future, and fear of how family will interpret the child. Speech becomes proof of “good parenting.” The child becomes a performance.

I should have been treated with respect from the fucking beginning. I should have been supported from the beginning. I should have been encouraged from the beginning. But no. No, it was "situational mutism" it was "attention seeking". Fuck you. #apraxia #nonspeaking #semispeaking
We know that nonspeaking people have #MoretoSay. October is AAC Awareness Month, and AAC app maker @assistiveware.bsky.social is celebrating with a short AAC understanding video. Please watch, take to heart, and share.

After seeing many doctors about my speech, who you would think could easily diagnose me, they came up with nothing. One trip to my PCP and she tells me I have acquired apraxia.
Why did it take this long? It's been 7 months, apraxia is not a hard thing to diagnose. #nonspeaking #apraxia
it’s important for these things to be normalized & not only familar to #autistic children their families & other non speaking people ❤️❤️❤️ #actuallyautistic #autismacceptance #autismawareness #autisticauthor

Jim LeBrecht in a dark blue Gucci suit with wide black satin lapels. A black and white floral silk shirt peeks out under the suit, and a dark blue handkerchief with red polka dots shows from the left suit pocket. He has dark gray curly hair, a salt and pepper mustache, and white beard and leans on his folded motor wheelchair.
Elizabeth Bonker with long brown hair in black graduation regalia and mortarboard decorated with colorful flowers. She stands at a podium and glances down. Text reads Be the Light: Elizabeth Bonker's Commencement Address, Rollins College.
Headshot of Nyle DiMarco with short, styled dark hair and dark facial hair with text that reads Being Deaf is part of what uniquely colors the small space of the world that I take up. It is the core of my identity, and I'm damn proud of it.
Today on the #Disability Daily Podcast we celebrate filmmaker with #CerebralPalsy Jim LeBrecht, #Deaf actor Nyle DiMarco & the anniversary of #NonSpeaking #autistic Elizabeth Bonker’s valedictorian speech.

Dear parents of #Autistic #Nonspeaking
children:
Here is what your children *may* feel for up to a week after having eartube put in: major ear AND nasal congestion, mild vertigo, general disequilibrium. Minor pain.
I had one side done Friday. It's not sensory friendly. #Medsky
So I give him my phone and I play “Good Day Sunshine” to cheer him up. He flips through the playlist, finds “Ain’t no Sunshine when she’s gone” and scrolls down to the line “anytime she goes away” and plays it a few times so I really get it.

Can #ND truly be politically neutral? #TJM thought so when he met Kemi Badenoch, MP. The opportunity to educate the Leader of the Oppposition to the UK Government was too good a chance to miss! 💪 Certainly, she now has met a #NonSpeaking #Autistic person whom she won’t forget. gofund.me/46923774
