The title is derived from the Buddhist term “bodhi,” or a state of enlightenment; for Judeline, “Bodhiria” is the liminal space that her alter ego, “Angela,” occupies between God and her lover.

Kray, who runs 670 Grams in Digbeth, Birmingham, said Bodhi was seen by a paediatrician in February 2024, who then referred him for an autism assessment.

Bodhi displays many of the signs of autism including not speaking, not responding to his name, not being able to sit still and not interacting with other children or adults.

Their concern is that if the school they have applied to cannot cope with Bodhi, he will be out of school and will have to be educated at home.

To give Bodhi the best possible chance of getting into a good specialist school, the family have now moved out of Birmingham to Burton-upon-Trent, Staffordshire.
