I take as much care of him as his mother. He is 29 yrs old but size of 10 yr old weight 98 Lbs.4.5 ft.tall. curved back ,head just set on shoulders,deaf & mute. He comes to me for everything he wants and doesn't let me out of his sight if i go he goes.I get his haircuts,wash clothes,food,Dr.visits shopping, visits friend,church,no charge, buy video games ,movies,make sure his needs and wants are provided up to what i permission to do ( i can't sign for doctor to do tests etc if the the doctor decides he needs something,or deal with SSi decision.) Just like now his mother has had a heart attack and is in CVICU unit in Florence S.C. Would i qualify? If so how do i get started. Sometimes I keep Kevin 2 weeks at a time 24/7. He seems like my own son we are that close.
I would also research to determine if there's a charity or nonprofit association that assists people with this syndrome and ask what assistance might be available.
A county social worker might also be able to offer some suggestions.
