I have often wondered where on the spectrum this illness fell. Esp. with ocd there are so many, many simulairities. like your son, my brother is very, very gifted. had to get an actual grasp of his intelligence quotient since he has "language/communication handicaps" but his memorization is astounding. when he was three years old he recited home alone part 1. the first time he spoke he recited a movie. and is a very talented artist. sketching and painting. i hope your son is doing well, my mother has had quite a time with his education and getting him proper learning techniques and aid that he needs to do well in school. there are some quite impressive people with asperger syndrome throughout history. i do consider my brother to be quite gifted.
regards,
