When my cousin Elijah, who is autistic, ran away after days of building frustration, my family launched a frantic two‑day search across the city. In this episode, my family and I break down what pushed him to the point of wanting to be homeless, how he unexpectedly went viral on social media and hit the news, angels we encountered along the way, and the moment our family finally found him. It’s a raw, emotional story about fear, family, and the power of community.
