Guest guest Posted July 28, 1999 Report Share Posted July 28, 1999 Pat B., Thanks for the kind words. I used to have a housekeeper and it was a lifesaver. She had to quit due to health reasons and now I have to do so much to get this place into shape for a new one that I find it overwhelming. I appreciate your support. I have friends and family who care, but just don't get it. It's hard sometimes. Thanks again. Amy Deel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Anyone watch House last night? The story was about an autistic boy but the best part was at the end when they were reading about Aspergers and it was loud and clear that they thought House is an aspie. I knew I loved that show for a reason! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 as much as I love that show, and no, I didn't get to see that epi, I don't think that House could be aspie.....I've never seen ay sensory issues or communication problems in his character. Perseverative...YES, Geeky..YES, High IQ...YES, out of the ordinary cognative processing...YES....Aspie...doubtful.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 aren't those the systems of Aspie? not every child has everything the same and all together. If you don't think this is Aspie, then what do you think it is?

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 I know when andrew was dx'd they almost excluded him because he has large vocab & communicates rather well, but the lang spec. said there were issues with the conversational back & forth...I forget the exact title, but that was a MUST some form of communication dysfunction.. AND they said that one of the most common signs is the sensory issues....either over- or under- perception of stimuli.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 I believe it was a communication thing that caused my son to be dx NOS not AS - but I can't remember what it was. But when I found out, I could remember him having that problem off meds when he was younger, so I think he is AS.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 --- House is an arrogant,SOB,with a horrable bedside mannor... in this instance I believe that House used this DX by his only friend to manipulate his boss....just like my daughter tries to manipulate evevery one!....It very well could be that House IS AS...I do not think that is true.....knowing how the man manipulates everyone he is around I feel that this was just another in a never ending ploy to get what he wants...

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 You know the reason that Seth didn't get an easy diagnosis of AS is because the doctor thought he was too able to meet people's eyes and able to carry on a conversation. I guess you neveer know what could be there or missing when a person has AS. I odn't know though because I don't really watch TV. Although my husband is a huge Hugh Laurie fan back from his Black Adder days Amber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 My son Isaac also can maintain eye contact when he wants to. He often chooses not to if it's not someone he knows very well though.
