Twin sister with autism


by: Darlene M. on Tue, May 13 2008

My sister is 42 lives in a AFC home for the past 20 years .I bring her home for the last three years gradually more and more.Most rescently every weekend from Friday night to sunday night.I want to move her home with my husband & me since my children are now 18 and 20. I know she does her daily routine of going to a workshop and this is my fear that I won’t be able to replace that. I also am afraid she will miss the people she has lived with for so long.I would love to get other people’s opinion on this.Any adive would be helpful
