  6. Why did they switch? • “John's early history was totally normal. By age 2 he was speaking in sentences, and he made frequent eye contact with his parents, and his older brother. At age 3 1/2 he became extremely anxious, frequently awaking at night terrified. During the day he would cry inconsolably for long periods of time, often repeating the phrase, “it hurts, it hurts, make it go away”. After a month, his parents describe a steep decline in his communication skills. He began to flap his hands, to soil himself, and had no interest in social interaction. Extensive medical examinations were conducted at 2 pediatric hospitals, failing to reveal anything that might explain the regression. At follow-up at age 12 he still was not speaking, apart from an occasional single word, and had been placed in a school for the severely disabled.” 6. Autism Program at Yale. Yale School of Medicine.
