Carly’s Voice: Breaking Through Autism Paperback

Description

Carly’s Voice: Breaking Through Autism is a compelling and inspiring book that chronicles the remarkable journey of Carly Fleischmann, a young woman diagnosed with severe autism and an oral motor condition at the tender age of two. Doctors initially predicted that Carly would never progress intellectually beyond the abilities of a small child. However, at the age of ten, Carly made a breakthrough that defied all expectations.

While working with her dedicated therapists, Carly reached out to a laptop and typed “HELP TEETH HURT,” a moment that stunned everyone present. This breakthrough marked the beginning of Carly’s ability to communicate through a computer, allowing her to have regular, witty, and profound conversations with her family and thousands of supporters online.

Carly’s Voice: Breaking Through Autism is one of the first books to offer readers an intimate look into the challenges of living with autism. Through Carly’s story, readers gain insight into the once-secret world of autism and the remarkable resilience and determination of individuals like Carly who have found their voice and their mission.
