Police say the woman, identified as 41-year-old Nyia Parler, went to see her boyfriend in Silver Spring, Md. after leaving her son.
No word on her condition or why she was hospitalized.
Parler will face charges for aggravated assault, simple assault, reckless endangerment, kidnapping, false imprisonment and related offenses.
She's expected to be extradited back to Philadelphia.
Police say they don't believe Parler's boyfriend had any involvement.
Detectives say this is one of the worst cases of neglect that they've ever seen.
"This kid is obviously a fighter. It's just unbelievable how we found him last night. It's just heartbreaking to see how another human, especially a mother, could treat him like that," said Lt. John Walker, Philadelphia Police.
On Friday night, a man walking on a trail made the discovery at 59th Street and Cobbs Creek Parkway in Philadelphia's Cobbs Creek section.
Police say the 21-year-old victim is a quadriplegic with cerebral palsy. He's confined to a wheelchair and has no verbal communication skills.
