We received my grandson when he graduated from eighth grade. It was his decision to leave his mother’s home and live with his father. I remember the day he entered his father’s home; he collapsed on the floor, crying. (This will be explained a little later.) We put B in high school, and we supported him all the way. He graduated Magna Cum Laude and entered college the following fall. He was placed in an accelerated group, one with predominately STEM courses. While in his first semester, we finally got him tested as I knew there was something off. The results were ready this past November on the 22nd, 2023. We already knew about his IQ as previous testing showed him to have 133, give or take. But this time, we found there was something else there-Anxiety, Depression, PTSD and ADHD, severe. PTSD was the result of an abusive mother, family and rural area where everyone kept everyone’s secrets. Now faced with medication and therapy, we are humbly asking for assistance with his tuition. Becoming a scientist in Biology is his dream, and we are doing what we can to help him realize that dream. Is it a challenge for him – yes. Is he up to it – yes! Just finished his freshman year.
As his grandmother, I am not only begging but also, to those who hear and feel my plea, thanking you in advance.
