| Introduction | Our son was diagnosed at 3 with "autism disorder, mental retardation unspecified." He's come a very long way since then and I wanted a way of letting friends and family know how he's doing... how we believe, thanks to behavioral and biomedical intervention, he is on the path to recovery. Thrown in are other things of interest, what's we're up to, recipes, some artwork maybe... to round out the family picture. * * * * "Our greatest victory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall." |
