What Susan Boyle Would Change in Her Famous ‘Got Talent’ Audition | Newsmakers - Yahoo News: Boyle was diagnosed as having brain damage.
It took the scrutinizing glare of the spotlight for her to seek a new medical evaluation that concluded she had Asperger Syndrome, a neurodevelopment disorder that falls along the autism spectrum, according to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke.
Surprisingly, the diagnosis brought Boyle some clarity and empowerment: “I don’t see it as a barrier. Why should it be? Disability can be ability. There’s lots of people with similar problems. They go out and do successful jobs. So why can’t I do the same?”
