New Definition of Autism
Will Exclude Many, Study Suggests
(See full story)


“Just as it takes patience to raise a child, it takes special patience to raise a special needs child. But, oh, what one can learn from these students. I'm at the Speech and Language Development Center in Buena Park, and 11-year-old Maya is learning to use a digital tablet to communicate.”

OC Register Photos by Jebb Harris
And so starts a great column by David Whiting in the OC Register (front page, News 1) last Friday. http://www.ocregister.com/articles/maya-331971-spencer-brandon.html. Be sure to also check out the accompanying photos by Jebb Harris. (They seem almost 3-D.) This is the season for believing, and David’s column may make a believer out of even the most skeptical among us!
