What Would Son Be Like Without Autism?


Laura Shumaker's piece on SF Gate.com, hits a note that many parents have thought quietly about at one time or another.

"Good Morning, Bowhay Investment Group"
My nephew, who is just 2 weeks older than Matthew, is in business school. I'd forgotten that he was also working for his dad. We chatted for a few minutes and as I hung up, I was flooded with a feeling that I rarely let myself feel--regret. What would Matthew be like if he didn't have autism? What would he be doing?
