Under the AUTISM Umbrella
(Bajo la sombrilla del AUTISMO)

Autism Asperger Disorder
(Autismo) (Desorden de Asperger)

PDD-NOS Rett Disorder
(Autismo atipico) (Desorden Rett)

Children with some symptoms of autism, but not a sufficient number to be diagnosed with the classical form of the disorder, often receive the diagnosis of pervasive developmental disorder, not otherwise specified (PDDNOS). People with autistic behavior, but also have well-developed language skills, are often diagnosed with Asperger syndrome. Children who appear normal in their first several years, then lose skills and begin showing autistic behavior, may be diagnosed with childhood disintegrative disorder (CDD). Girls with Rett syndrome, a sex-linked genetic disorder characterized by inadequate brain growth, seizures, and other neurological problems, may also show autistic behavior. PDD-NOS, Asperger syndrome, CDD, and Rett syndrome are referred to as autism spectrum disorders.

Además del Desorden Autista, existen otros cuatro desórdenes en la categoría de los Desórdenes Generalizados del Desarrollo que requieren de un diagnóstico diferencial.

Desorden de Aspergers- caracterizado por impedimentos en las interacciones sociales y la presencia de intereses y actividades restringidas, sin un retardo clínicamente significativo del lenguaje, y se prueba un rango promedio o superior en la inteligencia.

Desorden Generalizado del Desarrollo- no especificado de otra forma (comúnmente referido como autismo atípico) un diagnóstico de PDD-NOS puede hacerse con un niño no cumple los criterios para un diagnóstico específico, pero existe un impedimento generalizado y severo en conductas específicas.

Desorden Retts- es un desorden progresivo que hasta la fecha, ha ocurrido solamente en niñas. Desarrollo ocurre normalmente y luego la pérdida de habilidades previamente adquiridas, se pierde el uso propositivo de las manos y se remplaza con movimientos repetitivos que comienzan entre el 1 y los 4 años de edad.

Desorden Desintegrativo de la Infancia- se caracteriza por un desarrollo normal por los dos primeros años, y luego una pérdida significativa de las habilidades adquiridas previamente.

Philippians 4:10-13

I rejoice greatly in the Lord that at last you have renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you have been concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.

TODO ES POSIBLE CON LA LUZ DEL SENOR QUIEN NOS A PROMETIDO TODO SIN EL SOMOS NADA Y CON EL CUANDO NOS DISEN QUE NUESTROS HIJOS NO HABLARAN NO PODRAN TENER UNA VIDA NORMAL . TENIENDO FE EN EL SENOR EL DEMUESTRA QUE SIN EL QUISAS NO LLEGARIAN A LOGRARLO PERO CON EL SE LOGRA TODO.

PONGAN PRIMERO SU FE EN EL SENOR JESUCRISTO Y TODO LO DEMAS SERA ANADIDO POR SU FE EN EL .
