So many doctors said the left side of his brain didn't function correctly and he would never get an education, feed himself, put his own clothes or be able to function on his own. He was on so my medications and he had problems with communication and emotional issues. He was abused for years in every way you can imagine.

Him being non verbal and feeling alone he felt like no one would love someone with Autism. He also felt like no one would understand him. Today God has blessed him to be in places he never dreamed of.
