Update Schofields
A few months ago I saw an updated documentary on Jani and Bodhi Shofield and their family. I don’t know why, but I was actually devastated when I found that Michael, the dad, left the family and moved back east. I guess it was just too much for him, but somehow in my naivety, I thought the bond of their plight would keep husband and wife strong, although you could sense cold undertones in previous documentaries.
Jani has blossomed into a lovely teenager and seems to have stepped in where dad exited, or should I say she stepped up, now helping her mom care for Bodhi, who is inordinately more difficult than Jani ever was, often requiring 2 strong male attendants to hold him back from banging his head or biting himself or other violent behaviors. I’m guessing he spends much time at UCLA psych because he is so hard to handle. It was never spelled out (or else I missed in in the show) but Bodhi appears to be both autistic and schizophrenic, and I do not know what else.
Now the Schofield family has re-grouped, sans the father, and seems to be going strong. My offer to help them with Sai Sanjeevini prayer patterns, Bach flower remedies, other metaphysical healing techniques still stands, and finding a good astrologer who does clearings, is still good. Please reach out to me Mrs. Schofield…
