When Bianca Parzanezi Neves’ daughter Clara was born in 2013, it was love at first sight for the besotted new parents. My pregnancy was perfect and Clara was born a super calm, beautiful and healthy baby,” says Bianca, a Brazilian stylist living in Dubai. “My husband, Marco, and I could not have dreamed of anything better.”
However, although they knew that their little girl was special, they began to become concerned when by 18 months she was not really answering to her name or giving them eye contact. “We spoke to her paediatric doctor, who could not see anything wrong, and her nursery also didn’t think she was different from any of the other kids.”
“Please help us to seek advice as we are so heartbroken,” the parents wrote.
“Our son is 19 months old. He is such a very cute toddler but is already displaying the following signs of autism:
He doesn t answer to his name.
He doesn t point with his fingers.
He flaps his hands.
He plays on his own and laughs with himself. He doesn t play with anyone else at home.
He cannot talk and does not make eye contact.
He doesn t sleep through the night.
He now refuses solid food, whereas he used to take it before.
“We managed to take him to a therapist around where we live. We were told he has the signs but that it cannot be diagnosed until he is 3 years old, but the signs are obvious and we have been advised to start therapy.
