This is a diary of his road to healing & recovery. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ

"Autism: The Musical"
I haven't see this yet but I watched an interview on The Early Show and it looks interesting. Follow the link below to watch the two video clips...the second is a continuation after the commercial and has comments from two of the cast members. (BTW, Henry is the son of Stephen Stills of Crosby, Stills & Nash.) I was impressed with their verbal skills, especially Wyatt when he was talking about bullies at school. I dread Matthew having to deal with bullies in the future...maybe we'll enroll him in Karate so he can "go KungFu" on them if necessary! :)
"Autism is a neurological disorder that often interferes with a person's ability to communicate with and relate to others. Signs of autism almost always develop before a child is 3 years old. Typically, parents first become concerned when they notice that their toddler does not begin to talk or does not respond and interact like other children. Autism also affects how a child perceives and processes sensory information. The severity of autism varies. Some individuals need assistance in almost all aspects of their daily lives, while others are able to function at a very high level and can even attend school in a regular classroom. While this is a lifelong condition, early diagnosis and treatment can make a major difference."
