It is one of the most powerful tools we have for connecting, reacting, and signaling intent without speaking a single word.

Miss Kitty 🌈🌈🌈#Nonverbal expression can be so beautiful. Too often we call it #violence. I wish we called it art more often. The glory of music. The transcendence of visual communication.

The Tyranny of Hands and Verbalism
When I imagine how it feels to have severe Autism, with other “isms” like ADHD and IDD, I imagine lacking the urge, will, and ability to use my hands in a functional way...
Puncha Not SeeMy elderly grandmother is having increasing difficulty forming words and speaking. I made her a communication device.
It's 4 double-sided sheets, laminated, containing 8 groupings of Grandma's most common requests. When she is unable to talk, she can point to her directive in order to communicate her needs to her caregivers.
Alternately, she can plan ahead using a whiteboard marker. 🌸

Dani Caldeira moved from Brazil to Manitoba in 2023 to serve as a pastor in a small community. Her son, now almost 15, was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder at age two. In his case, this means he is non-verbal, unable even to communicate when he feels pain or thirst.

Is anyone here familiar with using PECS sheets or other point-at-what-I-want tools for seniors that are losing their verbal ability?
I'm making a poster for my Grandma's bedside with options for her to point at, in order to communicate her needs better to family and attendants.
Looking for your ideas! 🩷

Aubrey Taylor, Editorupholding the dignity of those living inside broken bodies…
It can feel really tough to see people born with disabilities, but is that actually fair to think? Maybe our perspectives need a little shifting. Take a moment test your own point of view...https://thedignityofman.net/2026/02/23/upholding-the-dignity-of-those-living-inside-broken-bodies/
