My Autistic son needs help with school tuition.

Donation protected
Hello my name is Michelle and I'm a single mother with a son that has autism and ADHD. Tj was diagnosed with autism and ADHD by Dr. Carter back in 2020. At this time, I was told Tj would be non-verbal and I was devastated as a parent. Never thought in a million years I would be told by a doctor that my child wouldn't be able to speak to me. I enrolled Tj in the babies can't wait program at the age of 3. By the grace of GOD Tj started talking at the age of 5.
My son's medication had been changed 3x's in an effort to give him the correct dosage amount while in school. Tj was attending a public school here in Richmond County and this school does not offer any services to help assist children with autism or ADHD. During class the teacher reported many times that Tj is not listening, he can not concentrate long enough to get his work done. There have also been episodes where Tj has run out of the school building and hit the teacher. There are days when I cannot get my son to eat, and he even isolates himself from everyone else in the home. The school had 17 kids to 1 teacher and Tj honestly needed to be in a much smaller classroom setting. Tj is now attending a private school that is equipped with teachers to educate children with disabilities. I'm just like any other good parent, I just want the best for my son and that's why I am asking for help to pay the rest of his tuition. Any amount is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.
