I agree. Something is seriously wrong with this boy but it is not autism. And I wonder about the “heart stopping”...her description doens’t sound as if he should have survived it.

The story isn’t true. There is no way that a child whose heart has stopped and has to be revived by paramedics would be released from a hospital so that the mother could drive the kid 3 hours to another hospital. Period. Didn’t happen as described in the article.

It may be that she was in a panicked state & thought his heart had stopped. That's not unusual when someone is in a life or death situation. But I wasn't there. So I can't say that she was wrong. I'm sure she has taken her son to people who are familiar with autism. She should probably trust them over internet resources.
