Autism is classified as neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impaired social interaction, verbal and non-verbal communication, and restricted and repetitive behavior. 1 in 68 children are diagnosed with autism every day and boys are more than 5 times likely to have autism than girls...With that being said... Please take a moment to acknowledge a special child named Desmond Joseph better known as DJ.DJ was diagnosed with non-verbal autism at the tender age of two. His diagnosis came at a time when his mother Cindy Joseph was going through her own set of crises while raising two other small children, Imani and Nia.Most parents dream about having strong healthy kids that will not only bring joy to their life, but will ultimately grow up and have a wonderful fulfilling life of their own. However, when your child has been diagnosed with autism or any other disorder for that matter, the average parent may panic, become frustrated or even blame themselves for their child's condition. Or some brave parents may accept the challenge head on and realize that they were chosen to be theirchild's savior.As we walk down this puzzle path road you will get familiar with DJ and his family as they deal with autism topics, frequently asked questions, family issues, school drama, the daily struggles of a lowincome household, and... well... just plain ole love.Be advised, this book isn't meant to be an expert opinion on how to deal with autistic children, or any scientific method on how to deal with autism in general.This sentimental page turner is simply a celebration of a phenomenal kid name DJ, who has beaten the odds, continues to strive every day and has managed to bring a certain joy to anybody that's ever been lucky enough to meet him.Every day may not be a piece of cake (or in DJ's case a Reese Cup), but somehow the sweet overrides the bitter.As Sandra L. Westendorf once quoted "Autism, is part of my child, it's not everything he is. My child is so much more than a diagnosis".DJ isn't just a kid with autism...He's simply a great kid that happens to have autism.… (altro)
