In 1993, I began to videotape some of my children in therapy in order to produce a training video for parents of children with Autism. However, the influx of new patients was rapidly increasing and projects such as this, were put on hold. In 2003, I revisited the unedited videos to see if I could complete the project.

As I looked at these tapes, I realized it would be valuable to locate the children and see how they were doing ten years later. Ten children had been videotaped, and only six of these could now be found.Five of the six children had recovered!

Four of those families agreed to participate in this project.
