X-PLAIN THIS!
BY MARC MUHLMEISTER
My name is Marc Muhlmeister, and I have fragile X which means, by definition, I am cognitively impaired. That just goes to show how meaningless definitions are because I am most certainly not cognitively disabled. And now that I can talk by spelling, I believe that I can be a spokesman for others like me. All people who are nonspeaking are defined by that inability. It’s a wrong that must be righted. I am to be a voice for change.
