I think as moms and dads we know when something is not right. I have learned the hard way that I know a lot more about my son than his doctor and teachers. A doctor dismissing Asperger's b/c she had eye contact is a good...

Confustication - wonderful and thoughtful advice! Kempsmama - is she involved in a tumbling or swimming class? They would provide her with the stimulation it sounds like she needs as well as the structure. Good Luck with your sister.
