When did I know that he was special?” asks Joan Moreau about her older son Brandon. “There were early clues. His motor skills didn’t develop normally. When I put him in a Jolly Jumper, he nearly strangled himself. He fell out of a swing. He never made a goal in soccer, and he got hit in the head by a baseball — twice in the same game.”

Brandon would rather be alone doing something he liked than with a friend doing something he thought was boring. As a result, he had a hard time making and keeping friends.
