Re: Article on Asperger husbands
      27/12/2008 13:29

My Oh doesn't have this condition but my uncle, my mums brother,does have it.
He has never been considered normal and has had problems in forming what one would consider normal friendships all his life. He has odd behaviour traits, like that of Autism , where the person or child likes to have things in a routine and sticks to them and hates any diversion.
My uncle also has fixations on often simple objects or ideas. Finally and sadly only just this year and with him in his 50s he has been diagnosed as suffering with Asperger's syndrome. Thankfully now he is getting one to one counselling which is helping him greatly.
My cousin has autism and is in an adult care home because it is so server and she needs medication to keep her calm.
