Friday, September 03, 2010 at 08:03 PMThank you for sharing that! Wow, that's quite amazing to me that he has progressed so well and found a wife as well. That is wonderful for him! We are hoping for the best for Ammon (who is too reserved to type anything on this site at this time) but it may be a rougher course for us, for he is MMR and very angry and frustrated. His disability seems to be much more severe than Quinns; but only time will tell after we are able to find the care and treatment he needs. I am anxious to put him into the right hands for his occupational therapy and behavioral issues. Deep inside he's a sweet kid! ... just misunderstood. By the way, he as 3 sisters and 2 brothers, none of them having this condition.

Friday, September 03, 2010 at 03:01 PMWell welcome to FriendsOfQuinn! This would be a great place for your step son to meet other people who are like him; and would also be a great place for him to share his stories. He can also read other peoples stories, who I am sure that some are very similar to your step sons. You are more than welcome here.

My grandson was recently born with this VCFS and through all the research I am fairly certain that both his mom and his dad (my son) also have this condition! I find it interesting the two of them found each other. My son went through a difficult time in school but I found the key was to find an interest he enjoyed and could excel in. For my son it was the guitar. I put him in private classes so he could learn at his own pace. He was able to join a group at school and he felt part of something even though he still struggled socially. I also placed him in the youth group at church where there seemed to be more compationate young people who were willing to give him a chance. Today he is 29, working in a hospital, married and they have a newborn that unfortunately has this condition.
