I need some help!! Advice anything at this point!! The state took my son from me! He was diagnosed with Autism in 2011. I've had him on several waiting lists to obtain services for his condition but the state seems to think I wasn't doing enough to get him the help that he needs. They have had him since August 16th 2013 and I have court on October 17th part of my requirements to be able to get him back home is to obtain services for him. But with my income and his insurance that has been impossible!! My son is my entire world and I don't know what to do with out him!! Please help me!! I need my son to come home!!This is my son! He's not doing well were he's at. He's regressed back to biting himself and had one of the directors at his daycare bite his ear because he bit her shirt. He would follow me around my home with his hand in my back pocket and my shirt in his mouth. Some times he'd sit by his dresser with shirts or sweaters in his mouth for long periods of time. It's a sensory thing he has.He's my entire world!! I need him home and he wants to come home. They allowed me to walk him to their car after our visit on Wednesday and he thought I was taking him home! He looked up at me and kept smiling and I kept smiling at him with tears rolling down my face! When he realized who's car it was he started bawling!! It ripped my heart out!!I've prayed and prayed everyday all day long. When I walk through stores I've never been in without my kids and when I come home and cook for 1 and when I fall asleep in tear soaked pillows and when I wake up to a broken heart and empty house! They said it would get easier but this has only gotten harder! I've accomplished every task they've required of me yet I can't accomplish this one!
