J.D.S. is a twenty-three-year-old woman with the mental capacity of a young child, living in Orlando, Florida. She suffers from “severe mental retardation, cerebral palsy, autism, and [a] seizure disorder.” She cannot communicate and requires complete assistance in all her daily activities. When J.D.S. was a child, her family abandoned her, and she has lived most of her life since that time in a state-licensed group home in southwest Orlando.
