Autism

Autism is a brain development disorder that impairs social interaction and communication, and causes restricted and repetitive behavior, all starting before a child is three years old.

One of my good friends' son has been suspected of being autistic. An appointment with doctors in KKH has been made.

I don't know what help or advice I can offered to my friend. I can only hope that through early intervene, this little active boy can get along with children in the main-stream schools.
