Well, it happened. We went to the neurologist and my Kai no longer meets the criteria for pervasive development disorder. So what now? The neurologist said that if he came in to get tested the way he is today, they would just say that he has a minor speech delay. He still doesn't answer why questions and complex what questions, but he said that is normal for some 3yr olds...especially children who just acquired language. His social skills are normal for a 3 yr old. His playskills actually are fine now, he does line up things occasionally, but mainly a row of his animals.

The story of how our son was recovered after nearly 3 years of treatment.

Told with the intensity of a medical thriller, the extraordinary story of how Clay Whiffen and his family conquered autism.

When Clay Whiffen was diagnosed on the autism spectrum, his parents didn’t know where to turn. They refused to believe that he could not be cured, and began to try every therapy they could afford -- and many they couldn’t. Frantically they worked, knowing that Clay slipped further away every day. When intensive medical testing revealed that Clay no longer fit the criteria for any condition on the autism spectrum, the Whiffens’ wildest dreams were realized.
