My son Cooper was diagnosed with severe nonverbal autism at age three. At age 5, he has absolutely no words or approximations. At age 6, we were told by a doctor to prepare for a life without words. At age 8, he said his first word. And here he is today at age 12. Cooper still has the same diagnosis of nonverbal/nonspeaking autism and Apraxia. Communicating verbally is hard for him but he works harder than any person I have ever met. This video is what I wish I would have seen all those years ago.
