blank stare episodes,has a hard time expressing his feelings and needs,cannot

write anything beyond a circle sucks on his thumb continuously but pulls his

hair out while sucking his thumb while he goes to sleep and at school.

not eat or breath on his own.When he began to eat solids after a year old

instead of chewing he sucked his food while it was in his mouth until it was

soft enough to swallow until he was around 3 years old.He walked late too when

he was almost 2.At first the doctors believed he has cerebral palsy but with

much therapy and work he has over come those obstacles and they long believe

this to be the case.He had severe speech delay as well.His speech delay now is

just very very mild.He olso didnt potty train till he was four.

specialists!
