Months ago I found out about a free online exam, the ATEC (Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist) made by the Autism Research Institute (it is statistically reliable) that evaluates the efficacy of any treatment you are using on your child based on your report of their "autistic symptoms". The lower the score, the better. This checklist evaluates areas such as speech/communication, sociability, sensory/cognitive awareness, and health/physical/behavior.
On January 12, 2009, Kaylee scored a 50 on the ATEC.
On June 11, 2009, Kaylee scored a 12!!!!
If you are interested in scoring your own child with the ATEC you can find this here.
That's wonderful!
