I never thought I'd be a blogger. I also never thought I'd be the mother of a child with Autism. Now I'm both!!
My son Ryan has been diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder-Not Otherwise Specified (referred to at PDD-NOS from here on). Autism is a Pervasive Developmental Disorder. It is a "spectrum" disorder. That means that every single individual with this diagnosis is completely unique. That also means that it's extremely difficult to define "Autism". I plan on posting a more technical entry, for those interested, so I won't get into that now.
I hope to speak in honor of my son. I want to share what it's like for him on a daily basis (well, maybe not daily...lol) and also what it's like for me, and the other people in our lives. I encourage comments and feedback, as I am very, very new to this!!
