I was the guardian of my autistic granddaughter from 6 years old until 16 she was my first granddaughter she had autism explosive tempers and she was on a lot of medication I took care of her until my husband passed away and then she's in a group home I'll see you I still see her every two weeks and take her out to lunch. When my mother was living with me and she came home from the hospital she stayed with me and I took care of her she had staph infection in the hospital so I did the IVs in my home afterwards she lived with me until she went to live with my brother because my house had too many steps.
