This is Jonathan Borbon.. he turned 8 years old on June 2, 1999. He was diagnosed at the age of 5 with Autism after several doctors did not believe he had this challenging disorder. He was in and out of immune system problems from the age of 4 months, had IVIG of gammaglobulin for several years every month, and now struggles with autism, and until he was 4 had no symptoms... he had several additional vaccines due to his immune system problems... and developed normally until regressing at the age of 4... you can even see in these pictures how connected he was at a young age.. and had perfect eye contact. He was potty trained at 3, regressed at 4 1/2 and was back in diapers even at school until the age of 7....Thank you to the artist Mark Leland for helping families like us with children with autism.... less
