I also want to mention that we went through the gamut of medical testing. MRIs, probes, biopsies, barium swallows, audiology, opthamologists, you name it. With 7 months of therapy, my little floppy man is now walking around, climbing on furniture and babbling. It took a long while to get us where we are. But he has caught up and is a very assertive yet social little guy.

CP AND Autism (like others have mentioned) run the full spectrum of mild to severe... both can be dealt with... I dont know your son's age, but with CP - there are often some obvious issues going on already, mostly with movement. I was given those concerns, so I did research and met people with CP children to better understand it. PM me and I also know of another person on this board who kind of manages a support group for kids with special needs who were adopted from GT.

I also know a little bit about Fragile X. PM me if you want more info or resources.
