Continuing with our special week of blog posts, here's a favorite story from Ryan's grandmother and a letter from Ryan's nonna and papa. We love the feedback we've been getting about the posts this week. Keep those emails and Facebook posts coming! We're glad you're enjoying these special editions! And for all of you that cried reading the last couple of posts, don't put those tissues away just yet!

Ryan is a sweet, caring, and sensitive boy. He always enjoyed me visiting him but never wanted me to leave. I would take my coat out of the closet and he would take it from me and put it on the floor. Then he would fall on it and didn't want to get up. When he got older he would say "STAY, grandma stay." It always made me glad to come and visit, however sometimes I would have to sneak out when he wasn't looking.
Love you Ryan,
Grandma
Wow! Ryan- You're 5 years old. Time sure does fly. And how quickly a little over a year passed since you were diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum. What a difference we notice since then. At first you appeared to have a distant personality. But since Dr. Bock, a new diet, many supplements and special education, we now see energy, motivation and brightness that comprise a very lovable, spirited and animated "you". You're too young to realize now but when older you'll know this became possible by the unconditional love your parents have for you. They continue to be unrelenting in all aspects of your care. The strength of their love and perseverance will give you a great life and wonderful education. As you told us not too long ago... "Nonna, papa, - Someday I am going to college." Well, Ryan, you are absolutely correct and we proudly look forward to that day as much as you do. In all your ventures we wish you the best. You are an amazing and very special little boy to us. May God Bless you on your 5th birthday and always.
We love you,
Nonna and Papa
