In his mother's arms, working through great physical pain, he would listen as the recorder slowly announced the letters of the alphabet, one letter at a time. When he heard the letter that he wanted, he touched the switch. The tape stopped, announced the letter, recorded it, and started over again. Fourteen years of silence were interrupted, one letter at a time. This book contains over 900 hours of Stephen's words. Stephen died peacefully in his mother's arms, on June 1st, 2001.
