[Faith-talk] how faith impacts our entire lives

[Ericka]

I just guessed. It runs in families. My nephew has it and is doing great. His was caught early & he had marvelous teachers. Gavin is in a new school dor high school. So far he's handling it great. No other issues but a darn brilliant brain! Are you good at math too?  We think my ex husband also has it. Ocd & probably aspergers-great musician & math person. Was an actuary.

There’s more of a smile included in the term “Aspergian,” which I used to think I was the only one who used, but there are others who went before me, so I feel totally validated! Sometime, I might even describe the gifts that can go with autism (like anything else, God stimulates us to look for them, and you don’t know about them unless you are intentional about that), but for now, I’ve taken up enough time and will step back, unless I simply can’t resist, to let others continue to comment on this really great thread!
