Hi Gail,

It is great to meet you. Thanks for sharing abit about yourself and your children. My name is n and I live in Garfield Heights. My son Davey is 4 years old with PDD. I remember getting in touch with you from the AutismOhio group a few months ago.

Everyone please join me in welcoming Gail to our group.

Hope to meet you in person sometime in the near future.

I live in University Heights, an east suburb of Cleveland. I have 2 children on the spectrum. Diane is 16, is mildly autistic, has some mental retardation. is 5 1/2, is considered moderately autistic an hyperlexic. He started reading at age 3. He is verbal, can identify hundreds of objects and verbs, but has trouble using his words to communicate his needs. I also have an NT son, Edwin, who is almost 5.

He is very social and verbal, and I think he helps by being a good role model. I look forward to participating in this group - and also hopefully getting to meet some of you in person.
