About

John Is Me is a biography of our son John, a gentle person who, in his own way, has taught lessons for a lifetime. He was born cognitively disabled and, in his fifty-nine years, has not spoken a single word.

Throughout Johns story, his imagined words and speculated thoughts are gently positioned with a commitment to credibility. In order to tap into his silent voice, the mother, father, and son embark together with Johns sounds invented through an intimate engagement - a collaborative and symbiotic adventure into a complex and labyrinthine mind. There is no doubt that John Is Me commands great attention and embodies a practical message about the subject of autism and the fiber of a family working to create a safe and peaceful environment for all of its members.
