I just wanted to thank everyone who replied to this subject!  I have some
good solids leads now to send to this mom.  I agree that because of the
characteristics of autism that her son will most likely be helped through
the therapy of breastfeeding since it's one on one contact time that he
doesn't tune into with other situations.  Our next step is to get her
husband to be more supportive when he doesn't think there is even a problem.
But at least we have a jumping off point!  Thanks again!
