    Very cool! I recently finished a research project on Autism for my neurology class. My daughter is currently in the process of changing her major to Musical Therapy and Rehab and this is a great example on the benfits that can come from that type of therapy. Thanks for sharing.

    What a lovely thing to share!!! Thank you. I have a relative with autism and the pain his parents have suffered is utterly wretched, as they think it is somehow their fault.

    My beautiful thing today was waking up...the dear Lord has given me another day to witness for Him and to make amends for my past. It is such an utterly wonderful gift to help others when I have spent so much of my life trying to end it ....GOD IS GREAT:love2:

    There are varying degrees of these inborn inflictions. For example, I have been dyslexic all my life, yet it has been overcome, to some degree, with learning and time.

    One example is that I have been responsible for millions of dollars, but, as my wife jokes, I can't make change for a dollar, still to-day.

    I have difficulty with some letters of the alphabet, yet I have earned three degrees and a few certificates, mastered English, mathematics and history. At times I had difficulty writing examinations, and yet could lecture the same topic to a class. Go figure!

    I can't make change for a dollar, yet I mastered architecture. I can't handwrite, but can print as quickly as one writes. I can even draw a straight line with only two points as a guide. Some have difficulty doing this with a ruler-guide.

    Amazing how we function in this world, yet God does make marvellous provisions.

    Cheers,

    Jim
