Shock

I believe no one has had real expectations for me until now. I am sitting here in Judy’s office kind of in shock. We are talking about having me tested so that I can take the high school equivalency exam. Never in a million years did I think I would be having this discussion in my lifetime. The idea of having a chance to get my diploma was laughable.

These days, I suddenly have it in my head that maybe, just maybe, the old way of seeing myself is no longer valid. Maybe Luke Gilmore determines who Luke Gilmore is…not some idiotic teachers at school. All my life I was treated as a moron who had zero potential. Now I am looking to get my diploma and to go to college. It’s my dreams come true. So yeah, I’m sitting here in shock. It’s like I’ve entered an alternative universe. Maybe Judy is our guardian angel…and she lets us achieve our dreams of being our true selves.

LUKE! Reading your thoughts is amazing. I can't imagine how it must feel for you to finally have an outlet. Bless you and your family and teachers who never gave up.

Luke, I’ve known your parents, especially your dad, for a very long time. (your dad helped me fight legislative bills in WA state nearly 20 years ago, while your mom stayed home to care for you & your brother). I’ve known how hard they tried to help, because they loved you so much. I know a LOT of spellers who are now able to tell everyone their thoughts.

What I want to know- how did you feel about all the different treatments? Did you feel a difference when you were trying new supplements, shots, or whatever? Which ones helped? Which didn’t? I’m really interested to know.

Truly amazing! How is anyone to know the abilities of the “disabled “? YOU are changing the minds and thoughts of so many people that just have NO idea of the potential! You are so very inspiring. I look forward to reading more about you

Luke, I don’t know you or your family personally. I started following your dad’s FaceBook acct during Covid.

Since following him, I have had the opportunity to see many of his posts sharing your journey. I am so appreciative of your dad for sharing… but SO blown away by what YOU share!

Thank you, Luke. Thanks for letting us hear you.

God bless you, your family, and all those who have contributed to your great success!!

Luke, I am delighted to read your words! Thank you for sharing with all of us. And thank you for being a pioneer for the non speakers. I’m sure you will encourage and inspire other families through sharing your insight.

Cannot wait to see where your curiosity takes you in college and beyond. May all your dreams come true! God bless you and your family.

Wow, Luke, this is powerful. You’re stepping into a new reality where *you* decide who you are, not the outdated labels others gave you. Judy may just be your guardian angel, or maybe she’s simply the person who’s reflecting back to you what was there all along—your own potential. So, here’s what I want you to know…shock and disbelief? Totally normal. But use that energy. Let it fuel you as you take these steps toward the life you never thought you could have. Because Luke, the universe is holding up a giant neon sign for you right now, and it says: "You are capable. You are worthy. And you are just getting started.”
