PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A woman has been accused of leaving her quadriplegic son in the woods in southwest Philadelphia for several days and then going to visit her boyfriend in Maryland.
Authorities say the 21-year-old son has cerebral palsy. They say he was found lying in leaves covered with a blanket next to a wheelchair and a Bible near Cobbs Creek Park on Friday night.
Police describe the son as severely disabled and say he was unable to communicate how he got there. Their investigation indicates he was left there Monday.

Probably drugs.
Dear God in heaven, protect those unable to protect themselves.
No doubt his SSI checks have been used responsibly.
No charges were filed, why?
Surely, the young man won’t be sent back home with her, as though nothing ever happened. I understand that if she is the only caregiver, it can become overwhelming, well okay, then plan accordingly or surrender conservatorship.
Suddenly this line came to my mind when I thought about the “mother”:
“I’m gonna have such a migraine tonight because I didn’t beat you.”

well what was she supposed to do with him while she was busy???
Probably because it is Saturday. My guess is that on Monday they’ll prepare the bill of particulars.
I’m sorry for this woman, who has a tremendous burden, but I’m even sorrier for her son, who has a failure for a mother.
No charges have been filed???????
What’s with all the stupidity coming out of Philadelphia?
Yah, she visited Maryland.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
There was a story about this on last night’s Baltimore news, as the slut was visiting her BF in B’more. A police spokesman said that the mother told relatives that her son was with her in Baltimore and that there were relatives who would have been willing to care for him.
Medicaid pays for respite care, recognizing that caregivers need a break sometimes.
