Hi
My 45 year old brother has recently been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome.
This is a developmental disorder that he has had since birth.  He has always
worked on the family farm but now it is being sold to pay estate taxes.  He is
living with me and I am trying to get him some help and benefits since he
finally has a diagnosis and is considered disabled.  I am most concerned about
medical insurance.  Although he is quite odd I am pretty sure I can get him
some work.  He has private insurance that my Mom paid for and it is quite
expensive.  Even if we get him a job with benefits we are afraid to let the
insurance lapse since he has some preexisting conditions.  He will only be
living with me for a year so any job I get him will be temporary.  I also
worry that his disability may make it hard to keep a job long term.  Any
advice would be appreciated.  TIA
