Thank you for everybody’s support. The petition has reached over 9000 supporters now. We visited Tianze this weekend again. Tianze seems to have had a couple of relatively not too bad weeks, so that we were able to have a good peaceful visiting time as well. I checked both his arms plus his legs, and found that there were no new self-injury marks but only the old marks were still there. I was happy to see that Tianze has drawn a house of our home, which is very good painting by Tianze. Tianze has created two people figurines by using special materials, he told me one is Tianze, and one is mum. He still misses his home in Glenrothes, Scotland lots. During our visiting session on Sunday afternoon, we kicked a football in the hospital yard; Tianze pointed towards the houses in front of the hospital building and said: “This house looks like our home, our home is not far away, it is just nearby here”. I didn’t wish to upset Tianze, I said: “You are right; our home is not so far away from here,” I told Tianze: “Maybe Tianze will go to a residential school in England after hospital. If Tianze feels it is too far a distance from home, Mum and Dad could consider moving home to be closer to Tianze.” Then Tianze said: “NO, our home is in Scotland, not in England. Even if Mum and Dad moves to England, I still need to return to our home in Glenrothes for birthdays and Christmas day.” ----Tianze has spent ten years in our Glenrothes home in Scotland, He has grown up there. His home in Scotland is just so deeply held in his heart. He is autistic and especially can’t accept changes ….How could it be so easy to move home? Even thinking of moving home, Tianze also can’t accept it. He just loves our current home so much! When it was nearly our leaving time, Tianze asked me to draw a calendar to count how many days he has spent in hospital and how many days until he could leave this hospital; When I used my pen to draw the calendar for Tianze, the staff suddenly came to try to stop me, she said: “No, you can’t bring your pen in hospital!” Tianze suddenly became upset and said: “It is sad; even mum can’t bring a pen in!” Tianze began to pull the curtain off ….. Then the staff became angry and said: “Tianze, you go back to your ward now,” I said: “If you are so strict, you will upset Tianze more, our visiting time is not finished yet, now you see Tianze is still sitting there and just wishes to finish his calendar .If we can’t use our own pen, can we use your hospital pen to finish this calendar before we leave?” The staff agreed, then we finished our calendar; Tianze counted it is 160 days in the hospital in England now …. Tianze asked: “Can I go home to spend my birthday on 5th of Nov.?” 5th Nov 2014 will be Tianze’s last day of the hospital section and it is exactly his birthday as well. I told him there will be a tribunal on 30th of October to make the decision, Mum can’t make that decision. Then Tianze said: “Tianze can’t go home; I need my favorite grey color CD back home.” The Staff told Tianze: “We can’t find this CD now”. Then Tianze was suddenly upset and had an outburst again: “It is too long to stay here this ward.” Then he began to bite himself ………..Then Tianze was pulled back to the ward by 2-3 staff ……….. It is SAD and I am Heartbroken again to say good bye like this ………. How beautiful the freedom means for a disabled child! How important a home means for a disabled child! Especially for an autistic child! Tianze, Mum knew it is first time that you leave home such long time. Mum knew It is first time you are such distance from home! You actually managed well. Mum’s heart is with you every day, Mum never far away from you…… Please keep patient, Please keep peace …. Please try to control your behavior. Nobody should deprive a child’s happy home ….. We are living in a civilized country. I’m now sitting in the train to back Scotland, I see the beautiful stream flow beside the train. As if my tears flow in my heart ….. I see small lambs following their ewes happily. I’m longer my lovely son could be in my warm arms…… We are looking forward the day that our family reunited. We are looking forward we have another good family holiday together …..
