Christopher was born from on June 1 2009. Me an my husband were really exited we had just moved to Cancun it was beautifull. My pregnancy was really normal and took all my prenatales. He was a born a healthy, beautiful 3.5 kilo baby.
He was growing perfectly untill we noticed he didn't walk or talk, he walked when he was 2. We took him to the doctor he said might just be a lil late and thought nothing of it. When Chris turned 3 he was running back and forth while flapping his hands, having meltdowns in crowded places, no speech at all, couldn't handle loud pitch noises and had very little eye contact. We got him into speech therapy while we figuered out what was wrong.
We were able to celebrate his birthday for the first time when he turned 4. He finally accepted the crowd, noise and the hugs of a birthday party. We were so proud, he received so many gifts yet decided not to play with any but gets so exited every time he sees the pictures.
Finally after searching for an answer everywhere in Cancun with out any luck he got diagnosed at 4 1/2 in Mexico City. We have always treated him like a normal lil boy and now he has a vocabulary of 30-50 words he is very sociable and very affectionate. We will be starting therapy in 2 weeks and I feel that if he learned so much on his own I can't even imagine how much he will be able to accomplish. I can't see myself with out him and I love him just the way he is. I am proud to have a son that some consider different, because to me he is my one in a million.
