    Get a lawyer and go to court.

    Without more details we can't offer anymore advice that that. Do you really think we can offer any reasonable advice based on what little you posted?

    Is the custodial parent lucid? If so they can sign a POA giving her daughter temporary guardianship of the child. This would probably have to be ratified by a court in an emergency hearing, but that should not be a problem.

    However, this would probably be very temporary. Without knowing why the grandmother has custody and where the mother and father are, its hard to advise further. The courts would consider the best interests of the child which would involve getting him into school and under care as quickly as possible. But they would also want to look at a long term solution.
