What killed Luke’s twin, and left Luke in an autistic fugue?Luke was thrust into our world barely clinging to life, hastened in his arrival by his dying twin. The doctors scratched their heads and ventured guesses as to what had damaged them, then admitted defeat when their theories proved wrong. At the age of three, Luke was completely nonverbal, and was labeled as having autism. As the years passed, Luke’s behavior spiraled out of control, until the subject of institutions began to creep into conversations. Then one day when he was seven, his mom, beaten down and broken by life, stared at the old well as they pulled up into their yard, after yet another confrontation with Luke’s principal. Something clicked in her head, as if someone had just turned on a light, and she turned and gaped at Luke. She realized then what killed Luke’s twin, and what was really wrong with Luke.Autistic or Toxic? is a true story about a mom and her quirky, but hilarious, son, as they traveled down that mysterious road towards autism recovery, and the devastating lows and triumphant highs they met along the way.
