I have worked 7 months with a 5-year-old who has Agenesis of corpus callosum (ACC) a rare disorder that is present at birth (congenital). It is characterized by a partial or complete absence (agenesis) of an area of the brain that connects the two cerebral hemispheres. Due to the he had trouble walking, was not speaking at all, emotional, lack of focus or extreme focus on one thing, etc.. since I started working with him he is stronger, walks better, focus has improved, I habe gotten him to speak up to 200 works at a time. He is comprehending that words mean something and is asking for what he wants. He is now doing home school and I am his at home aid. I love working with children and would be happy to talk to you about the ways I achieved his successes
