@A MyAutismTeam Member I've asked on my Facebook page if there is anybody in the Allentown area, or if anybody knows somebody in the Allentown area, if they would be willing to help a stranger in need and bring you something to eat. I'm still waiting for a reply. Just wanted to keep you posted.

@A MyAutismTeam Member I can ask around and see if I know anybody in your area that can bring you a meal. Can you tell me what hospital you're staying in and where it's located?

Try googling Respite Care in your area. You should be able to find someone who can come and stay with your 7 year old.
