My Name is John

.

How do you tell the story of your life without words?

Meet John Linville, a resident of Group Homes of Forsyth and one of the subjects for our series “Story of My Life”.

John is one of a set of triplets, born prematurely in a time when, as his sister says “it was incredible that any of them lived.”

John’s inability to speak is probably the result of some kind of injury at birth, and he lived at home long after he grew to adulthood. Now he lives in a group home, where he’s learned to do a lot of things for himself and gained a sense of independence he didn’t have at home.

Stay tuned for more “Story of My Life” installments.
