Hi, I'm Stryder and I'm 3 and a half years old with an undiagnosed disorder. I am a very happy little boy who cannot talk the way other peole do, but I am learning sign language and I have a device called an Augmentive Communication Device that will talk for me. I have a lot of the same symptoms that other kids with autism have, but I have seen many doctors and they all tell me I am not autistic. My joints in my body are very loose and it makes it hard for me to walk and run and play with my friends. I can turn my feet all the way around, which really makes my mom cringe. I am a strong little boy and many people would not know my disabilites just looking at me because I hide them very well. I got accepted to go the Mayo Clinic in MN (I live in Oregon) so that I can see a renound DR. in speech and get many other tests done while I am there. My appointment will last almost the entire week at the end of June. Please consider helping our family out so I can go. Monster Trucks are my favorite, so my mommy made these digital stamps just for me- look at me driving in my favorite jeep!
