I watched this today at school. Love this! Good for you Carly. You are an inspiration:)

[@Ibbygirl19]

Ay, this has me in tears! I hope and pray that some day my son can communicate with us like this. Thank you Carly for giving me some insight to my son's experiences and for giving me hope that even if he never speaks, that he might still communicate with us some day. You are an inspiration Carly.

Carly! you are totally amazing! I suffer from a condition that causes me ongoing pain also. It is very difficult even with the ability to speak freely about it. What you have overcome shows a great deal of strength and determination. Life has it's ups and downs. It must be very challenging just to get through the day to day, but I hope you can continue to overcome these big obstacles. Congratulations on finding your voice and reaching out to others! You are definitely inspiring!

This is a great documentation!!! Writing is a great way for autistics to express themselves!! I am also autistic and find it easier to express myself through writing instead of verbalization. Thank you Carly!! You are a great inspiration to all! :)

[@walkingdan]

Never, never, never give up!!!

[@KarinWettig]

Thank you so much for this here. It helps a lot to understand. I cried all along the video. Here is my Experience as a music teacher with autism: I started teaching a boy of age 9 on the piano who was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome at age three similar to your daughter. During the first classes this child never looked at me nor talked to me. Today, 12 years later, we did concerts together and he accompanies me for Opera Singing. Look at our videos and let your daughter learn music!.

Carly can be the ambassador to teach us how to communicate and how humans think.

[@metallicarocks447]

Dear Carly Fleichmann and family, There are so many children out there with this diagnosis that you have helped by this. Maybe this can be a new way to teach them ALL to communicate. You have giving everyone an inside view on how this medical condition feels inside. Explanations why you bang your head, flail, hum, rock. Etc... I quote "Our brains are wired differently." God bless you girl. You are going to be famous... I will totally buy your book. You’re an inspiration to all.

[@williamschutz4982]

To the person who said autism is not a medical condition, where do you get your information from??? I am a father of a severely nonverbal autistic children and I can assure you that it is definitely a medical condition.

[@chriswanderer90]

[@auti34]

this is great but parent need to know that not every child will become like her or me .it hard .but i think if you can get the best therhy out there you give your kid a change of being the best they can be what ever that is .i like this video becuse it shows that what they assume of us when younger dosnt mean it whjat going to be forever
