We have been in this situation before, my son has autism and he was 9 years old when our 186 DE was rejected. Depending on your occupation, you will have chance to execute a Health Waiver in case your visa got rejected. At this point, I would suggest you get an assessment from the specialist(Psychologist, OT, Speech, Pedia). Talk to them to give you positive reports although most of the time they will be honest with their findings. These reports will be use as basis for the MOC to provide estimate on the cost that the government will spend on your son for his welfare, schools, etc.
If ever you reach to a point that you need to appeal your case to AAT, PM me I'm willing to share information on how we won our case. Don't lose hope, look for a good immigration lawyer who is passionate and will fight for your case -- he/she doesn't need to be famous on Google search!
All the best!
