Gage Hankins, survivor of Aurora shooting, joins Peter Reitzes to discuss the tragedy in Colorado, the 2012 annual convention of FRIENDS: The National Association of Young People Who Stutter and how he has greatly benefited from being part of the stuttering self help community.
When 18-year-old GAGE HANKINS was shot in the arm during the Aurora massacre, he refused medical attention until more seriously injured victims could be treated first. Gage was in Colorado to attend the annual convention of FRIENDS: The National Association of Young People Who Stutter. This morning he talked with StutterTalk. It’s a potent 20 minutes, well worth your listen.
