Lolita’s lifelong fight to secure her daughter’s future with Asperger’s syndrome
Eva was born prematurely, weighing just 1,200 grams. As she grew, her diagnosis of Asperger's syndrome became clear. Despite her condition, she completed a degree in philosophy at Emory University. However, she struggles with basic concepts like work and money, making independent living in living spaces impossible.
Eva will never be able to hold a job or manage her own finances. Lolita’s preparations—financial safeguards, a secure living situation, and legal protections—are designed to keep her daughter safe. The measures reflect a mother’s determination to provide for a child who cannot provide for herself.
