About Collin

Collin, 2 years old.
Before he stopped talking.

Collin, 5 years old.
We're lucky if he says one word a month.
Collin is usually a pretty happy kid. He'll be 6 on November 28th. He was officially diagnosed with non-verbal autism spectrum disorder just before the start of the 2011-2012 school year. He was making outstanding progress in North Dakota. Unfortunately, we had to move and the services in Montana are far from stellar (read: they suck!). Collin has actually been going backwards. Because of this, I've decided to start Speech Therapy at home. This is our story.

  2. Terrye, Best wishes to you and your family. There is no doubt you have love nd compassion for your son! He may not be able to communicate verbally right now, but I am sure he has lots to say! Through the pictures you shared with us, he looks happy and shares it with the world!
