>what is ACM ?

ACM = Arnold-Chiari Malformation.  There are two types , type 1, which my
son has, and type 2 which is more prevalant in people who have spina bifdia
(sp).
What is it exactly ?  It is where the cerebellum is herniated into the
spine, blocking off the spinal fluid at its peak (hasn't happen yet to
Zachary, thank God) and presses on the brain stem.  Zachary's is down into
the C1 level at last MRI over a year ago.

>EXACTLY what is central processing delay?

Central processing delay is where everything coming in through the eyes and
ears take you awhile to process the information and responde to it.
