LONDON (UPI) -- The mother of a young boy with a severe communication
disorder says she is "over the moon" with happiness since he spoke for
the first time.
Jamie Jenkins, 5, of Swindon, England, who has Autistic Spectrum
Disorder, brought joy to his parents when he uttered the words "mumma"
and "purple" for the first time, The Daily Telegraph reported
Saturday.
"I'm over the moon. I give so much to Jamie and I try so hard all the
time," his mother Emma Jenkins said. "He has been trying for a long
time, but he has properly said a word now."
Jamie has been visiting London's National Light and Sound Therapy
Center where he participated in therapy sessions twice each day, the
British newspaper said.
Jamie's mother said he now says the words "purple" and "mumma"
frequently.
