Experience

Reuben is my 12 years old, severely Autistic little brother. He was born at 25 weeks. He was so premature he had to spend 1 year in hospital due to complications. He suffered from brain damage due to lack of oxygen. Soon after Reuben had a Tracheostomy, He as born with a very narrow windpipe which was not allowing him to breath properly. A gastrostomy was also installed into his stomach soon after. This allows Reuben to be fed directly into his stomach. He has problems with his mouth and throat up to this very day its the only method we use to fed him. He struggles to understand or learn how to chew or swallow. Doctors say he will never speak since he has passed the age of 8 and still has not spoken a word. My mother and I have been his only carers all his life.
