Guest guest Posted October 18, 2002 Report Share Posted October 18, 2002 I found this interesting, as one of my 3 sons is probably on the autism spectrum, possibly Aspergers or High-Functioning Autism.

The word " kidney " caught my eye as my exhusband's identical twin brothers had some type of kidney disease, transplants, etc. Chris in NC , " yogiguruji " <yogiguruji@a...> wrote: > Good Morning! > > Autism > > Autism may be a symptom of several different biological entities > which merely present as a similar behavioral complex in early child > development.
