A little background

Our son was born with severe projectile vomiting and a minor hypospadius. He had a very hard time gaining weight and struggled with it for several years. He was a vegitarian by his choice for the first 5 years, now he will eat a little meat but there is still not a whole lot of variety in his diet. His favorate foods are chicken nuggets, peas and ranch dressing. We did have testing done on his stomach but everything came back normal. He has had more ear infections then I care to count. A lot of times they were just one right after another. He has a very low perception of pain, he hardly ever complains of his ears hurting although I know it is painful. He has always pulled and played with his ears even when they don't hurt, I think it is a habit now. He was slow to walk and most milestones were delayed somewhat. He didn't talk until he was 4 years old. It was more grunt and point and babbling. He still is in speech and is making a lot of progress with it. He is very shy and won't talk to strangers, even with a lot of family that he sees quite often, it is hard for him to talk to them. He has selective mutism as well, which does make his life even harder. He also has ADHD and Autism. There are a few dysmorphic features we beleive are a sign of this deletion also. He does at times have aggressive behavior, along with head banging and self biting. He is a very early riser, around 5 a.m., it really doesn't matter what time he goes to bed at nigh, he will always be awake long before daylight. There is also the possiblity of small seizures, but that has yet to be proven, so we are not sure as of yet.
