World According to Matt

I am the mother of a 15 year old with Asperger's.  He was diagnosed at 11 after years of testing and therapies trying to figure out what was going on with from about 2 years old.  He began speaking fluently at around 4 1/2 years old after 18 months of speech therapy five days a week.  He is currently in a school for kids with learning differences and appears to be engaged, which is what we hope for...his grades can be just ok as long as he is happy and making an effort to be part of the world.  He has two older, grown siblings.  He adores them.  And we all adore him!
