    HI Maria, I tried watching this video at http://www.autismone.org/content/thyroid-autism-connection-2 and the sound was not there. I tried both the sound on the video and my computer and I still was not able to hear a thing. Any recommendations? My son may now also have asthma in addition to Aspergers.
