Speaking in sentences

"I am information."

"I cannot see."

Until today, Armando found it nearly impossible to speak in complete sentences. He could only speak half of a sentence - not enough to communicate a complete concept and be understood. Mostly, in order to communicate with him one had to ask questions that could be answered 'yes', 'no', 'ok', or a shrug for 'maybe'.

Today, with the two sentences above,that began to change.

Speech also came with the awareness that his sight has been affected in ways that we don't yet fully understand. He can see, but his sight is somehow jumbled in a way that seems to be connected to his speech.
