Hi Listies!

I have a 3 year old great nephew, who lives in Portland, Oregon who is
undergoing testing for autism:  either very high functioning, possibly
asperger's syndrome.  I have heard that going gf/cf is the way to go, so
here are my questions:

1.  if you live in the Portland, Oregon area, could you email me as to
support groups for autistics in the area or someone who is a point of
contact?

2.  what are the research links to autism and the need to go gf/cf?  Is it
more than anecdotal and truly medically based?

3. If there is a R.O.C.K. group there, do you include a child such as this?

4.  This child is the 2nd cousin of a young man who has DH, so is course gf.
Now is there any correlation between the two of these?

Thank you and I will post your kind replies!
