I can talk with my fingers

I came to JoyDew as a young adult. Today I am a grown man and I am on my way to become employed as a radiologist assistant.
I have great expectations about my future in the world.

It is very important to be able to communicate. If you can’t speak, you need to find a different way to communicate and express yourself.
I am very capable of stating my mind if I have the tools to express myself.
I am very happy that I learned to type because I have pleasant things to share with other people.
I like my very fond childhood memories.
I have a thinking well where I can picture my friends.
When you can’t speak the words, you will not be free.
So we will be creative about this.
I know about the possibility to be more independent.
It is called typing to communicate. It is something I would like to teach everybody.
Thank you.
