Living with an Invisible Disability (Missing Part of his Brain)

Kevin was born without the part of the brain that connects the two hemispheres, a condition known as complete agenesis of the corpus callosum. He was also my student for over three years and the first person to ever be interviewed on SBSK. At birth doctors thought Kev would never walk, talk or think, but he is now applying to colleges while entering his last year of high school.

"Getting a day older every day" is my new favourite quote. And it's by Kevin.

[@emmettbattle5728]

second favorite is "what are you most proud of yourself for?" "the fact that ive grown to be _this_ every day". i definitely need to start saying that to myself in the mirror each morning, it was such a beautiful way to express being proud to be yourself as a whole. all experiences good and bad are included, i am _this_ and im so proud to get to _this_ point. kev truly has a way with words!

I live in Massachusetts and we have to take a test called MCAS every year. My grade came up with the phrase it really means “Massachusetts Child Abuse System”

[@jkd2817]

Its so true tho! At least for me!! Love it!! Lol.

[@virginiaconnor8350]

So true! I have a learning disability when it comes to mathematics and it was never been my forte. I have to write out any calculations on paper because I'm so ADD in trying to keep the steps to solving an equation in my head. Still, I did better in other classes and graduated from college in '87.

[@gesa1139]

Greetings from Germany. I always love to see you, Kevin. My son (9) has partial acc, so I will translate the video for him. Your words will surely strengthen him - Thank you!

He’d be the most watched weather man EVER! He could tell us rain is coming and we all be happy about it!

Also I have to say, this video added the biggest grin on my face. How dare you make me smile this big dudes, I had my heart set on a grim Tuesday! Keep tearing apart that teacher of yours Kevin, you're living my dream in that sense. We all wish for a little payback to our teachers. :)

[@Kaz.Williams]

Oh gosh this young man is such a delight. If my daughters ever have such a lovely boyfriend, I'll be the happiest mother in the world! Chris must be immensely proud at the positive impact he's had on Kevins life. Grinned and laughed all throughout this video. Dude is going to high high places.

[@KHANPIN]

This guy is a gem! His personality is so refreshing to experience, definitely glad I got to see this vid about the first SBSK kid

[@kelsiedaisley5626]

I have ACC too! I'm also so happy that comments have returned!

[@Chalupabatmanx]

What a cool guy! Really enjoyed watching you two catch up and reminisce about his time as your student.

[@zacharyrussell7796]

“Obviously there is, I’m sitting here” gotta love this kid!

[@farmlyfe5859]

His attitude is infectious :)

[@mellchiril]

I have all my brain in one and my words still come out the wrong way all the time. If everything I thought was immediately put into words I would get into serious trouble 99% of every single day. Honestly, Kevin's doing quite well in that department. I'd love to have a comversation with him, I feel like it'd be very open and honest.

[@russellricksbooks2579]

I'm 63 with Complete ACC. In spite of my ACC, I'm a high functioning successful professional artist and a published author. I'm looking for avenues to mentor others with ACC.

His confidence is amazing and admirable. I have to imagine being in your class must have helped him grow that.

WHAT AN AMAZING YOUNG MAN! So articulate, so charming, smart & funny! What an awesome personality this dude has!!!!! I was having an awful morning- woke up late, kids scrambling around, got in my vehicle to get them to school and it wouldn’t start😤 husbands out of town so I had to call my mother to come help us out .. my daughter texted me saying she just got assigned to write a paper- and it could be on anyone or any topic; and for some reason Chris and SBSK popped in my head! (Chris, or the Queen lol ) and while doing a quick search to make sure she knew who I was talking about I happened upon this video- and when I tell you it totally turned my day around!!! Watching this totally uplifted my mood. He was a delight to see & sit and listen to; and I’m sure he was a pleasure to teach and get to know! Thank you for sharing with all of us- And thank you for not only educating, but bringing some joy into our lives ♥️

As I was preparing for my pediatrics state exam I came across this condition, never heard of it. I thought to myself "no way these patients are able to talk, think, walk. Let me check this on youtube to see whats up" and boom. I met Kevin. Brains blown away. I am 24 and almost a doctor. We (doctors) in fact, know nothing. Amazed with this story, amazed with Kevin and amazed with the human body and medicine. Absolutey wholesome. Wishing Kevin lots of success and luck for his life, what a beautiful soul.
