The Listening Project

Available for over a year

Father and son talk about their shared experience living with Asperger Syndrome. 19-year-old Dillon was diagnosed with both Asperger's and diabetes a few years ago. He lives in Scarborough with his dad Jim, whose Asperger's went undiagnosed until he was 25. Following Dillon's young nephew also receiving an Asperger's diagnosis, the father and son discuss how they were affected by being diagnosed when they were.
