Megan and Jim Leney of Saratoga were dejected when they learned that their 6-year-old son Evan had autism. Doctors told them it was a lifelong condition. But since the Leneys discovered the Son-Rise Program in Sheffield, Mass., they have become optimistic that a cure is possible. People with autism are often preoccupied with certain routines, rituals and objects, and they show little interest in social interaction.
