You have the better end of the case based on what you have provided; however, it is risky to handle this without a lawyer, especially with your physical limitations. I would suggest that you go see a lawyer to protect your rights and those of your son.

Run to the nearest legal aid office as I am sure you qualify and get yourself an attorney. If they can not provide one, make sure you either get one or attend the hearing with all your medical and financial papers in hand.
