RE: Fwd: Free iPads for people diagnosed with autism who are non-verbal or minimally verbal

[Guest guest]

Hi, Debbie I wasn’t able to get to the web site as it needed a user name and password.  We have a 32 YO son with autism and he is non verbal. Medicaid won’t pay for an ipad.  Is there any other way to get access to this site?  Thanks, Sharon From: autism-georgia [mailto:autism-georgia ] On Behalf Of Debbie DobbsSent: Friday, December 03, 2010 4:15 PMTo: GA-ChildrensNetwork ; 'plspnewsleg'; 'Autism Forsyth'; AutismBiomedGA ; 'Autism'; 'autism-aspergers'; 'autism-georgia'; 'AutismNorthGeorgia'; atl-spectrum ; CoTroAFS ; 'ASGCobb'Subject: Fwd: Free iPads for people diagnosed with autism who are non-verbal or minimally verbal FYI . . . this is fantastic!
