A Voice That Can't Be Heard

Our final project for photo journalism class is to do a photo essay.   Yesterday, I met a little boy who
has spinal muscular atrophy.  He will never ride a bike.  He will never breathe on his own.  He will never walk.  He cannot taste as he has a feeding tube.   He can hear, but he can't speak.  How can a story like his be told?  I hope to capture the personality of this little boy and the wonderful people who take care of him for my final project so that a little boy can finally "speak."
