Man cured of autism visits Scotland

This week an American man who claims to have been cured from Autism is touring Scotland to talk about his recovery
Ron Kaufman was diagnosed with severe autism as a child. Doctors expected he would eventually be institutionalised. However he has shocked many in the medical profession by graduating from university, after his parents developed the sunrise technique which involved copying his behaviour and actions for three years.
Kaufman said:
Using this technique was when they had their very first break through with me. The first time I looked at them, the first time I tried to include them in my games gave them hope. We have now done this with thousands of children and we find that that is where the breakthrough occurs. That is where we get the first relationship and that is when they start to do their behaviours less. Once they engage with us they we have a number of educational techniques which then help them cross the bridge into our world.
