One of my kids' cousins (actually second cousin, but they're very close) was severly autisic. His dad worked with him night and day and he managed to break through. He still has social issues, but he's a wonderful kid, currently in collage in Colorado. He grew up in California but loves being with my kids because a) he a bright kid and b) my kids have never seen him as weird or forced him to do anything he didn't want to do. He would send a week or so here in the summer and if he felt like just being alone for the day, no biggie in my kids' eyes.
Somewhere in Denver but I don't remember the school.
He's tall, skinny as anything and has bright red hair. When he used to wear it in a Jewfro, I teased him that he looked like a lit match. Very easy to spot in a crowd, that's for sure.
