There could have been a financial barrier here (insurance often won't approve 100% of the cost of a wheelchair) or it could be due to a lack of medical care. It sounds like Jacob had never been seen by a doctor, at least not recently, so I HIGHLY doubt he ever saw someone who could prescribe him...
She's doubled her weight and grown 3 inches already... Wow! I'm happy to hear she's doing well (or as well as she can be given the situation) and is with loving family.
Autism is a HUGE spectrum and some people have very mild/subtle communication issues. Most people wouldn't know I was autistic if they only had a short conversation with me, for instance. Could be a similar situation with this girl.
I also find it very strange that a photograph of the mother has been publicly released but her name is being withheld. If it's a HIPAA related thing, her face shouldn't be released either.
I'm reminded of a similar case in Spain involving a former UID (he was identified earlier this year). He was 55 and had been severely disabled since birth. He was placed in the care of his siblings after his previous caretaker died, and they neglected him to death. They didn't report his death...
I feel like she'd be a good candidate for genetic geneology; Doe Network says she has DNA on file. It would be hard if she's an immigrant, but it's been done before.
I'm autistic and, IMO, I'm not seeing any definitive signs that Jacob's mom is autistic. She definitely has some mental health issues, but there's nothing that points towards autism, at least to me (aside from Jacob being autistic).
I wish we knew for sure who saw him last and when. It sounds...
LOTS of pics of (I assume) an older daughter on AH's FB but not even a mention of the other three kids.
From the article, it sounds like the three abused kids are siblings and AH has been the "custodian" of the 9 y/o since 2020. It makes me wonder what her relationship to the kids is and WHY...
This article says both Hilda and the baby tested positive for cocaine at the time of the baby's birth: Mother of Bryan Vasquez held without bond; newborn tested positive for cocaine at July birth
Daily Mail is known for its provocative, sometimes not-too-accurate headlines IMO, and this looks...
No new missing kids for over a year. I'm hoping whatever was going on has resolved and these kids are all safe and happy. I still have so many questions though...
Possibly a long, rambly post, but I just want to throw around some ideas/get some thoughts out of my head.
- Was the eviction sudden? From the pics available, it seems like a lot of stuff was left behind. Maybe she didn't have enough time to move/dispose of the bags.
- Things like previous...
Wondering if the deceased infants were fathered by someone aside from her husband and that's why she concealed those pregnancies? Also curious about the birth order. Going by FB pics, it looks like her two living sons were born in 2016 and 2018.
Per the link above:
Authorities say Schultheis fired a handgun in an attempt to shoot a bird that had entered a brick building. He allegedly only put his arm into the room, keeping his head outside to avoid a potential ricochet, before pulling the trigger.
So a bird got into the house and the...
I took it to mean that someone in the family was babysitting the 12 y/o boy, not that the boy was babysitting the pregnant girl.
But now what we know the story about this boy being the father is false, none of this matters. It's possible he doesn't even exist.
She was found in a plastic bag on the side of the road. If this was a stillbirth, SIDS death etc and her family couldn't afford a proper burial, there are kinder ways to deal with that.
