I tried to include this in my original post for AAC, but for some reason it would not work. I am including this video as my choice of an inspirational story of a user of AAC. I loved this video and was so pleased by the progress Maya made with her communication device. It really made me appreciate how far assistive technology has come in the last number of years and respect all those who are working to give these people a voice of their own. I only wish this technology was available 30 or 40 years ago for a family member who was non verbal. I remember the frustration she and those around her faced when she couldn't communicate her wants and needs. I am truly in awe of what is available today!
