It occurs one in every sixty seven births, Four times more often in boys. Families of all racial and ethnic backgrounds, Regardless of stature or poise. It's a Lifelong neurological impairment That affects the ability to speak, Play or socially interact. I felt my knees grow weak. My husband took me in his arms; We held each other tight. My five year old beside me asking, Mommy, is Stevie all right? We wouldn't have known there was a problem, If not for his speech delay. We thought he was just a little shy, And preferred solitary play. When she said they don't know what causes it, I just wanted to die. My God, this isn't happening, They can't even tell us why? God is not sleeping, I said to myself Over and over again; Holding fast to my faith in God To help me endure the pain. Clearly there needs to be research.
