Description
This book explains the recent advancements made in treating Autism, Asperger's and Attention Deficit Disorder, with real life stories of children who escaped their confusing worlds to live happy, healthy, productive lives. You will read about the amazing story of Whitney, son of world-famous brain scientist Dr. Cheri L. Florance. Dr. Florance is an amazing woman whose own life journey is filled with unfathomable twists and turns that seemed to predestine her to become the mother of a child diagnosed with autism and severe mental retardation - only to find a treatment that allowed him to become completely symptom-free. Dr. Florance discovered that many children diagnosed with symptoms similar to Whitney's were actually visual thinkers whose brains were operating at a very superior level which caused problems in verbal attention memory, listening, reading, speaking or writing. They were trapped in their own little world of pictures, a world where words were muddled at best. And without words, there could be no true communication even with family members who loved them the most. Dr. Florance learned how to use this enhanced visual ability to reach and develop their verbal ability, teaching them how to communicate and to enter our world of words.
