[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son was DX when he was four. We suspect my husband, his father, my mother, both my brothers to have AS. While they do not have a formal DX, their symptoms are worse than DS's and AS was not recognized prior to the 90ties anyway. I admit I was not too surprised or upset when DS got his DX. He is just like with his dad but without the anxiety and sensory issues. Despite all the AS symptoms, all the mentioned family members graduated from an Ivy League college (except one of my brothers who skipped high school and went to Johns Hopkins at 14) all have advanced degrees and successful careers, married and have children. All have a full, happy life and I expect the same for DS. Grieve now but it'll get easier. DS is doing fine in K and completely mainstreamed with an IEP. Has friends, loves schools and is happy. Your son will be too.[/quote] This is the OP. Thank you so much for this, I really needed to hear it today. [/quote]
