Univ. of Texas-Austin Needs Input from Us

[Guest guest]

If you have a child between the ages of 4 an 12 that was diagnosed with a PDD,

including Autism, Aspergers, Rhett Syndrome, PDD-NOS, etc., please participate

in a two week sleep study being done by a student needing her degree. There are

no invasive tests, blood draws, anything like that, which is something I was

leery of when it came to my kids so I asked. It's all paperwork, wanting to know

about sleep behavior of the child and the primary caregiver. There is

compensation for participating, if that matters to anyone. And no, I'm not a

friend of hers, but a participant with 2 kids in the study.

These studies are important for us to participate in, because even if we

don't read the results, others with children with diagnoses in the same

categories DO. So if you live in the US please follow the link and at least

check it out. This link goes to the Autism Speaks website, and there is a link

there to more detailed information if you think you might want to participate.

Thanks, Kim
