00:02It may seem novel, but this keyboard tattoo is opening up a world of communication for Jessica Fletcher and her
00:1011-year-old nonverbal son, Hunter.
00:13When we remove communication barriers, we're giving non-speakers the chance to show us who they really are.
00:19Hunter is autistic and until last month communicated almost entirely through a virtual communication device.
00:26But that all changed when the device died while they were at a restaurant.
00:31I got a piece of paper and I wrote the alphabet and he kind of got a little frustrated.
00:35He flipped it over and started writing the keyboard and he fake typed on the keyboard to tell me what
00:40he wanted to eat.
00:41Inspired by that interaction, she wanted to make sure he had that access everywhere, like at a splash pad where
00:48technology may not be suitable.
