My son doesn’t speak. So I’m telling his story.
Eden is 13, autistic and non-speaking. He can't tell his story, so I'm telling it for him. Start here: who we are and why What About Autism exists.
Getting down to the beach with Eden
Counting down to beach days with my autistic son Eden. He loves the water, which is why water safety comes first. What every parent should know.
My son can’t speak. So I wrote him a song.
Hidden Histories is a song I wrote for my non-speaking autistic son Eden, set to footage of our ordinary life. It's now the theme of What About Autism.
Life with my non-speaking son, from fifteen months to high school
Photos of my son Eden, autistic and non-speaking, from fifteen months to his first day of high school, and a call for families to share their story.
He can’t say I love you, but this says it all
My son Eden is non-verbal. Walking home from the park he held my hand and squeezed it when I talked to him. Sometimes love doesn't need words.

Eden is 13, autistic and non-speaking. The day he greeted me home from school for the first time, after eleven years of waiting. A dad's story.
