What about parents rights in West Virginia?

My husband and I have a beautiful son who is 16 years old and has autism. He is verbal, but does not understand interpersonal communication and is considered moderate to severe in the autism spectrum. In February 2009, his biological grandmother filed a petition for visitation and took us to court in May. We were shocked and confused as we hadn’t heard from her in over a year, so we obtained a lawyer . The grandmother wanted our son to stay with her in Portland Or., which is across the country, we live in WV. , for the whole summer without us.
