RIP John West — he passed away recently from natural causes.
John West was an autistic adult who had been abused and neglected by a previous caretaker. Des (@/waxesbydes_) found him in poor conditions, became his legal guardian, and took him in. Under her care, his health and life improved significantly. He gained independence, worked, attended college, and enjoyed family time with Des and her daughter Eliana. He had autism plus other serious underlying health issues.
