Noah had no intelligible language, almost no approximations and very poor oral motor skills. He did not have the motor coordination necessary to blow a bubble or produce any sound on a horn" 
"  Noah is now 4.5. He is still affected by his apraxia every day. But now, he has so many words. He has sentences! He is able to communicate his needs and wants" 

Noah grew up not being able to communicate and after 4 years he is able to talk to his parents using sentences. ]]> 2018-10-26 01:34:07 UTC https://padlet.com/1956brmcgr/ktvu97c43rfr/wish/297236832
