Bobby

This is Bobby; he is 19 and autistic. He also had a stroke at the age of 9. He has made tremendous strides from being almost entirely nonverbal to being very social at the day center he goes to for special needs folks. Here he is talking to both his girlfriend and best friend, trying to manage two conversations at once. He also has two younger sisters, both of whom are on the spectrum, as well. They have never been silent, so perhaps they have been rubbing off on him.
