A really good story
To infinity and beyond: A sparkling survival story
The boy sounds a lot like our son Tom: Very autistic, almost totally nonverbal, and fascinated by Disney movies.

Friday at Convergence – I
Visiting Tom
Tom, our severely autistic younger son, has been living away from us for the last two years. We go to visit him most weekends. Today I went to see him.
The weekend so far
Chicago in the Twin Cities
Politics 3. Science 0.
On the Roller Coaster
Taxes–2nd pass
As I wrote previously, our 2007 tax situation was chaotic. It now looks like we will be getting a record refund from the Feds and paying a record amount to the State. Still, that works out in our favor.
Our son J has a separate tax return, but I am stuck on that, He is getting Social Security Disability payments, but we do not yet have the SSA-1099 for him.
While writing this I realized we have a similar situation for our younger son, Tom. We will be contacting their social worker.
