Talking To An Attorney

[@Self_love70]

I love all the information you give in all areas of raising an autistic child. I’ve learned so much from all of you and I can take that with me in my journey of ABA therapy realizing every child is different ❤

[@deniseg229]

I’ve been a co-caregiver with my sister for our parents for years, our dad just passed away in June. We are so thankful that he had everything prepared for us, his will, funeral and all the documents we needed all in one place. So much easier for us to navigate these past few weeks.

[@MommaOsoIrish67]

I'm sorry for your loss. No one can appreciate the value of a loved one being prepared, documenting everything, unless they've been through this heartbreaking event. I lost my Dad many years ago, but my Mom in June. Unfortunately despite knowing for almost three years that she was terminally ill, and several serious conversations about legalities, she made zero preparations. At least we were aware that she wanted to be cremated and laid with my Dad. But, my younger sibling has just taken over and done as he pleases regarding everything else. It's caused a whole unnecessary war and alienation at a time when we should have been there for each other. I pray for you to find comfort and healing in your time of grief.

[@BobbieSue-xz7lk]

One thing I will mention being in the medical field and working at bedside in a hospital, PLEASE discuss your wishes with whoever is making the final decision if you're sick and don't make it out of it. One of the hardest decisions for loved ones to make is to keep you alive or let you go peacefully.

[@tammijeffreydavis6504]

My husband and I just did all of this and it is emotional so I feel for Mama.

[@itumelengmashilo6071]

Isa is right, you looked gorgeous Priscilla. That dress is beautiful. Thank you for sharing the valuable info. Making provision for unplanned events is crucial.

[@brandonrowsell7989]

You guyz are so lucky to have that angel as your daughter.

[@Truecrimewatcher]

Just a thought…would you ever want isaiah to attend one of these legal appointments with you, just for the experience? Eventually, he will have to do this on his own, make the decisions. Im thinking more as of a training tool.

[@shannonguevara5896]

You are so photogenic and pretty, Priscilla! You also have the best personality. You radiate joy inside and out. ❤

[@janaedeason3828]

I got my Daughter done to really awesome attorney. My sister told me to get it done and I’m happy to have my family prepared in case something happens to me .

[@barbararose88]

Years ago, we did the same for our autistic son, with his brother and a corporate trustee running a special needs trust for our disabled son's share of our estate.

[@angiedeel1]

Love how you and Percilia have everything preplaned for Abbygail and Isaya it makes people safer feeling

[@cherylbrookshire3290]

You are blessed to have both sets of parents still around.

[@lindafox5006]

I work as a social worker and I advice you don't put money into an account with Abby's name on it. Put it in Asa name. She won't be able to have Medicaid with money in her name.

[@stacyq7656]

I was told the same thing by an autism resource place.

[@xanthebluett338]

You 2 are so adorable, half way through a serious conversation and Asa "you look beautiful today we should take your picture in front of that cute fountain"

[@janaedeason3828]

Awesome idea having the other sibling paid for helping. Thanks for the extra idea :).

[@fatheringautism]

Our pleasure!

[@Self_love70]

Not Ace getting red while Pricilla is whooin on him in the dressing room. 😂 you guys are so cute ❤

[@jennifertramontano319]

You’ve been commenting her so much in your videos lately ❤ that’s lovely to see!

[@karendavidson6272]

Hair is so pretty today Cilla ! Color is beautiful .

[@TriciaNagels]

EVERYONE. with children and or money NEED!!! NEED !!! a WILL!!!!!

[@stephanieenglert2014]

Wow 5 years ago . Oh my I was with you guys when you went to the other lawyer .

[@brikhouse22]

Instead of a ball pit Abby needs a paper pit, then ut doesnt need to be cleaned up every day lol.

[@tiffymcconkey]

I love how Abby does 👍 then ✌️ right after. In my head it's 👍, peace out lol

[@kahlanmanske]

You should check out Kohl's clearance if you have one. Your size is often in the clearance section.

[@skylarhammons]

I think Abbie would tell you that there’s better be magazines and Daley’s money available in the trust! 😅

[@hopedealerflores316]

Abbie would so say that .

[@alenaadler8242]

Her squeals at "What do you want to do tomorrow" ...I wish I squealed in anticipation of tomorrow. 😂

[@kellymargot7022]

It’s been a minute, I hear you talk about nanny just wondering about the other super person you called nanny. I forget exactly what you called her. Was way back. Don’t mean to bring up anything sad or bad. Just curious. You all are doing amazing things! Thank you for sharing everything you do!

[@blumberg1982]

I get it it’s hard but you can loose weight if you put your mind to it! I’ve been there and am still there but you can do it! I have serious faith in both of y’all!

[@pinky-xt1mc]

Thank you for sharing this Abby enjoy the rest of your day sweet dreams Mama 💜❤️🙏👍

[@Self_love70]

Taking a break from my ABA therapy classes I’m having trouble understanding punishment. Now I understand punishment but the examples they give make it confusing and I hate online learning 😮❤

[@BeeCJ]

Loved the pictures by the fountain ⛲️

[@DevilWitch519]

We do that with the lipton soup but also put orzos in it and if we don't have that we add already cooked white rice if we have some left over. And I put celery in it as well

[@heatherbarnes9829]

Electric lawnmowers and now giggling in the men's changing room?? Isaiah..... Blink twice in the next video of you need help.....😂. Love you guys!❤

[@fatheringautism]

Haha

[@lindadriscoll5652]

You look so pretty Cilla ...loved the dress you wore to the meeting. 💙

[@MDSisco1975]

Your dress is absolutely beautiful Pricilla ! You always dress in such pretty clothes. ❤

[@jennifercunning3021]

Thanks for the idea for the soup.....never thought of doing that... Lipton chicken soup is 1000 percent better than canned

[@tracyfinch918]

Sounds like Nala is wanting some attention!😂

[@PinkAgaricus]

The getting dressed thing makes me think of that animation meme of the two different types of face washers. One has a skincare routine and gets broken out and the other one just sprays their face with water and ends up being perfect. I feel like the most recent round is illustrating that is kids don't need those highly acidic skincare routines (adolescents and preteens are those "kids"). The water spraying person reminds me of me since I just tend to wash my face with water most days. (Except on bath days)

[@donnawatkins3316]

My Parents went to the Prime Osborn grand opening in 1986. Can’t believe it been that long ago.

[@lisanaylor4839]

I wish my mom and dad did something like that I am a disabled person with spindabifda and both parents passed now and now I am homeless but I making it

[@littlelorib7980]

I have disability spina bifida, my mom died when I was 21 ,I had a son when I was 19 naturally, best thing in my life , why aren't you in a disability living place?

[@heatheramyprice]

please make sure your county board of developmental disabilities understands that you are homeless. It is their job to help you get a medicaid waiver which will help you with a place to live. I'm so sorry you lost your parents. All of the best to you.

[@Kimberlyberard75]

I do the same thing with the Lipton soup it's awesome ❤❤❤❤

[@Mom2Twins0806]

Cilla.... from one plus size girl to another... I wish I had your confidence and style. You are so beautiful. I wish I was like that.

[@colaw77]

Same!

[@michellevincent8338]

Me too

[@Dee-rt8nd]

Hi AJ and I love your blogs and your channels. We have a question about the Special Needs Trust. Would one get a trustee for the Special Needs trust plus a backup person?

[@bethb9159]

Yall are so cute. The shirt deal was so funny. ❤

[@angelamcgee8703]

I didn't contact anyone I just became a caregiver for my mom from the time she got sick January 2021 to the day she passed may 2nd 2021 then june 2022 my dad became sick hospital stay every month for 16 months I still care for my 77 yr old dadmy sister and brother has power of attorney for them I don't mind caring for them they cared for me

[@donnawatkins3316]

This are the recipes I would like to see. Quick and easy….

[@colaw77]

Hope you do make a chicken soup video! I love easy and quick recipes. I can’t wait to try it out…how much water and bouillon do you use?

[@russelaugust3391]

It all right I have one

[@kathleenmunoz4465]

You two are too funny.

[@Fix.family.]

My husband finds a shirt/ shorts brand that he likes, mostly Costco and we buy a bunch of the same thing😂😂😂😂

[@judypinson6609]

My husband is the same way about his shirts and T shirts. He keeps them for ever, says that they have a lot of memory that goes with them. I think he is crazy

[@cinhaytas]

I love ur family ❤

[@DrivinAndSingin]

Date night in the changing room! 😂😂😂

[@Lynn11254]

I know the feeling about my husband's clothing Some of his shirts n suits are from before we got married 35 YEARS AGO!!!!!

[@bettyjean2793]

Asa blushing, got me😂😂😂😂

[@EP-oc3iz]

I don’t understand why Priscilla hates having to put makeup on to get ready for a meeting. Just go as yourself. Yes put on a nice top, but your beautiful as you.

[@franny5295]

We don't vaccinate anymore because our son had a terrible adverse reaction to the very first time he got any at all. Vaccine induced encephalitis and other problems that related to his gut. Took him 10 months to recover. I hear a lot of, "I would rather have a child with autism than a dead child! You should vaccinate him anyway in the hospital because vaccines don't cause autism!" I don't think it's that simple but if it were the dichotomy of choices you were given, do you agree? Because you both have the resources, and each other, to take care of her and make arrangements for her. I've seen so, so many families fall apart. Marriages, finances, everything. Could you do this divorced with 70k a year? And that's average so let's assume that caregiving would not allow you to have a job that pays that. Would it even be possible? Knowing that as kids age out of "childhood" there's no real help and often as they grow older they get more aggressive and more difficult to handle. Maybe ask your dad and see what he says since he's more practical but I couldn't do it. Desire has nothing to do with it, I couldn't do it. My husband died when our son was 2 and obviously nobody plans that. Also, I think it's a little disrespectful to minimize how difficult forever parenting a severely disabled child can be, regardless of what the problem is. I'd really like to know what your dad thinks. I don't think I'm void of emotion but I also don't have the luxury of whatever it is that allows them to be so dismissive.

[@tinakeil1950]

I love Lipton soup. I like to take a beaten egg and slowly pour it in the soup.

[@berber3]

I really need to redo my special needs trust. It’s weird to think about

[@jackyjones8625]

Add some sour cream or cream cheese to the soup.

[@escott696]

Asa you are on top form today. Dad would unplug me. Compliments for your wife. Little big shirts v Costco shirts and ribs. If you go the Costco route you won't fit little big shirts 😂 Remember my American eagle orange shirt 😂 I'm currently wearing a 14 year old faded hoodie.

[@PamMoore-yx9qo]

What if you have no money for a lawyer?

[@fatheringautism]

Save up money. If you smoke, stop smoking, if you pay for Netflix, cancel your subscription, if you stop at a convenience store for a snack stop doing that, anything you do extra or unnecessary that costs money, stop doing it and put that money aside. There are also options for attorneys that will take a case pro bono but you have to research it. Not being prepared for the worst only makes it hard on other family members and especially hard on the person with disabilities that you care for.

[@denisemanfre9542]

How do you get a power of attorney if no family members wants to do that?

[@SuseMck994]

Here in Australia, you are assign professionals to take on that role - or an accountant for financial and a lawyer for medical. Might be an option, I'm not sure.

[@SuseMck994]

Here in Australia, professionals can be assigned that role (if they agree). So an accountant for financial and a lawyer for medical. Might be an option, I'm not sure.

[@Jaymoney07]

Abigail looks just like Priscilla. I just noticed that once you guys did the photo shoot.

[@thepettetfam4887]

We literally just got the will papers in the mail today... 🙃

[@pinky-xt1mc]

Hello Miss Abbie and family 💜👋

[@jessicaoppegaard2244]

Got nervous with the title

[@susanliltz3875]

Canned soup leaves a funny taste in my mouth.

[@JaniceTaylor-it3ed]

You all look so nice

[@phyllisheintschel1437]

I think we need to see the shirt.

[@jaytotheell]

my husband has had ONE collar shirt in our 39 years together. never a suit or dress shirt. it's always plain old boring dumb tshirts.

[@SuseMck994]

Love how you guys find joyous moments in mundane events - we have to go to a lawyer appointment, hey look at this gorgeous fountain out the front of the building, gonna take gorgeous pics of my special person - says a lot about who you are and what you truly value!!

[@PamMoore-yx9qo]

What if you have no money for a lawyer

[@laurenlutz8848]

Hi guys! Hope things are ok

[@heatherburke3822]

I thought Summer was also on the trust for Abby so she can help Isaiah

[@fatheringautism]

Yes, she is

[@heatherburke3822]

@fatheringautism ok I hope I wasn't being rude just curious

[@fatheringautism]

@@heatherburke3822No, I didn’t take it as rude. She is still named in the trust. It’s just confusing enough as it is so I didn’t add that detail to the video.

[@catherineclifton-c5m]

Hey Asa what is your Airbnb name for renting?

[@katieprice3984]

Why do I get the feeling Abbie did not infact bring her iPad over to chat at the end lol teenagers

[@ladydutches7717]

[@kathrynbroome5966]

i no a lady near me who has looked after her sister since her 20s she carnt be on her own but it haS had probs like relation ships and care ing

[@hannahxx17]

I think what Asa was trying to say about his dad pulling the plug is: He would make the best decision and be emotionally capable of handling that decision without it being psychologically damaging (I got you Asa).

[@ruthwalker9656]

are you feeling better Cilla?

[@heatherburke3822]

Where has Becca been

[@fatheringautism]

Married, working and living in a different county. We still get to see them from time to time.
