PLEASE HOLD FOR MARTHA IRVINE STORY: In this Thursday, March 3, 2016 photo, Family photos of the Alexander's are seen on a countertop at their home in Metairie, La. Alexander, 22, has nonverbal autism, a condition that became apparent when he was 2 years old. He has found his voice through writing using what is known as “facilitated communication,” a method in which another person steadies the hand of the autistic person, so he or she can communicate through typing.
