I think Janet explains it best in her blog 'Our Boy Shane '
I am the mom of a beautiful 12 year old boy who is 3,000 miles away from home receiving treatment for mental illness. They don’t accept insurance. It’s $12,750 every two weeks. He’s been there three weeks and will be there for two more. He will get to come home for Christmas, then will be leaving again for a therapeutic boarding school in Tennessee on January 2.
It is expected that he will finish out his education there. Six long years away from home. Struggling without his mom to gently rub his hair while he falls asleep. Or his dad to play video games and tell silly stories. Or to read a bedtime story to him. Or to watch cat videos with. No kisses daily. No hearing his laughter except during our once per week phone call.
For all of the many, many of us who count ourselves friends of Scott and Janet now is the time to help them, especially at this time of the year.
