Joy comes in all forms


by: S.E. on Tue, Sep 02 2008

My son William is 5 and he has autism We have come a long way from weepy nights and frustrating days since he was first affected at 1 month. But now he is happy, healthy and making huge gains. He is potty trained, talking and showing so much affection. All of our efforts, the diet, the therapies and the preserverence (in the face of uncompassionate doctors who told us it wasn’t going to help) have paid off. Do everything you can for your child, and trust your own instincts!
