One out of 110 children are born with Autism and 1 out of 70 are boys! Until researchers find a cure for this disease the numbers will continue to increase. It affects all nationalities and ethnic groups. We need to get involved in funding Autism research organizations.

At last it's Saturday and Gregory is in rare forms today. Too bad he just wants to stay to himself and listen to his music. It wont be a good idea to bother him today. He will come around that is when he's ready! Someone asked me what is Autism? Well it's a developmental brain disorder and really doesn't show up until age 2-3. There really no known cause for it. It has been estimated that one out of every 110 children are diagnosed with it. You think you have a happy healthy baby until his second birthday when you notice that he's not talking and won't interact with other kids. That's how it was for me and although medical professions told me my son would probably never talk, I refused to listen! I continued to work with his vocabulary. I went against all odds to prove them all wrong and I did! Don't believe what they tell you! Keep working with them read them books and most of all keep talking to them no matter what. They probably won't talk back or give you eye contact but keep on talking. It takes time and patience!
