Top issue

I have severe autism and can’t talk. I am 17 years old and I want people to know I am in here. My life is very different since I started typing.  The top issue is belief. I need people to believe in my typing.  I am what people see when they see severe autism the brain is working but my body betrays me. Being autistic is very challenging. I am a nuisance to many. My body needs a place like Access Academy because they understand what I need for success.i want to be a missionary in Mexico.  I would suggest never giving up on your kids.

    I’m glad your telling everyone how you feel and what you need to succeed. It needs to be heard. You are not a nuisance though, you are a child of God, and He is using you how he wants to, and it will be for His kingdom! Stay strong and know I and many others are praying for you! Love you!

    Josh,
    I know a young girl who is autistic and types like you do. It must be marvelously amazing to now have this ability to give voice to your feelings. May God continue to use what you type to be an inspiration to all.

    One of my favorite scriptures is Psalm 30 … and my favorite line, which has seen me through many trials, is:
    “weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning …”

    May your heart continue to hear His words, your fingers continue to “hear” your brain, and all of us continue to be blessed by the words of you, and others, who are using typing to share what has been locked inside.

    Hey Josh:) I was excited when your mom gave me your blog site! It’s so wonderful to be able to hear what you have to say now. You do have a voice and your words will reach many.
