To My Son
 

“Please remember what I told you: always fight for what is right.”

I missed your first graduation, and my heart aches for that. As your father, missing milestones like this is something I never imagined, and I will always regret it. But from now on, I will be there—for every achievement, every moment, every step of the journey.

This fight for justice has taken so much away—not just from me, but from you. As a parent to an autistic child, my role in your life is more than just being present—it’s about providing stability, understanding, and unwavering support. Missing your ABA therapies, the routines that bring you comfort, and the time we once spent together—it has been the hardest part of all of this.

Please understand that this case, and being pro-se, has taken time away from you—not by choice, but because I have no other option. I had to stand up for the truth, for justice, for us. I need you to know that even when I am not physically there, you are the reason I fight.

Through all of this, God always sends the right people to help in your time of need. No matter how hard things seem, no matter the obstacles, we are never alone. And soon, this battle will be over.

I will be back, stronger than ever. I will make up for the lost time. And I will be the father you need and deserve—present, unwavering, and always fighting for you.

With love, Your father

Justice means transparency.
