I been have difficult time. I worry about how hard everything for people trying help me. I know not easy everything happening with me and need big help. It been very hard and scary and I am very scare be leave alone again. I don’t want to die. I know alone again I will die.
I’m not only one like this. This happening to me happening to many everywhere.
I beg you this. Open eyes. See truth. Notice what been tried to hide. Value the disabled. Value those like me. Help. Don’t leave us isolated and alone. We have worth we matter. Together we are strong. unite. Stand with me. For me. For them. For all of us. Build a better future.
we are worthy of living. Let us live. Let us show you the beauty in our lives. We are beautiful. All of us. Open your heart to it and see the wonders of our worlds.

if talk us understand this.
we multiple. We not say alter or personalities. We people.
I new person. I don’t know what happening. I don’t have memory everything. I can’t answer all question.
we use AAC. It not communication device need. It slow and frustrate.
we not read. We not understand most word. We likely not understand anything you say.
have complex disability. Can use hand little. Use hand hurt and not ability anything more all day. Be able use not mean good use.
can force into wheelchair. Make fall hurt. Make pain all day can’t move. Not safe.
When say can’t do alone true. Be do for one time day not mean can do.
everything scare and we not understand anything.

I use lots AAC.

many I don’t control with. Shake and spasticity make hard.

trial device give control but go soon.

I need device. get fund make hard. Wait too hard.

give voice then take voice bad.

many don’t understand what say. Words hard understand.

always learn take long long time learn. People not wait give up me learn.

I’m not dumb just need long long time learn new.

be patient can know lots new things.
