    Can I Vent? non animal related.................*UPDATE* and new *UPDATE*

    we all thought that having our stepson finally diagnosed with failure to thrive and a Dr willing to testify would be the end? NO now both states arizona and illinois are unable to agree who has jurisdiction over this............... if we send him home on the 30th we break illinois law by allowing a known child abuser to have him if we don't we break az law by not returning him when the court ordered. A court case is scheduled for the 27th of July in Illinois, however both states Child protection agencies are trying to pass it off Az says he is safe here so no case in AZ Il says technically he resides in Az soo they cant make a case stick I want to throw up. Is it truly going to take this child becoming a stastic? he has a 30 % chance of survival without the aggressive medical treatment he is getting here. He is going in at 5 am tomorrow for 72 hours of tests and tube feeding. Sorry but I needed to vent and ask for prayers.
    Alex is home and as expected tired and confused, during his hospital stay I did an awful thing..............I googled his mother to disprove her statements,that she was 1 unemployed and destitute. 2 no longer using any of my husbands book material or his CDs that he has produced and collecting money from them and 3 available for her child.
    here is what we found.

    and no we aren't talking the actress and she has no liscence of certification in massage or reflexology. and how can you allow your clients to come in and out of your home as that is the HOME address 24/7 and she claims no bank account but accepts checks?
    Maybe it is me but it sounds like Alexes' allegations of touching have more foundation than we thought........................





    Ok so we are finally lawyered up as the saying goes to the teeth out 6000.00 in retainers and all we know for sure is Alex has court date the 27th.

    So I am going to the BBQ in the Thursday thread, dropping off watermelon and stuffing Alex with the homemade ice cream , after that I am going to the corner to cry from frustration and maybe kick a lawyer or 2 and then sic a parakeet on the damn Judge

    Prayers are yours, as many as you need!

    You'd think that just his tube feeding and 72 hours of tests would turn things to common sense.

    Common sense is TOTALLY lacking here in the child protection agencies. (Just who do they think they are protecting here??? ARRGH!)

    Is there someone with common sense at your congress rep's office? Often the admin people there can help in ways that are mind-boggling!

    Governor's office?

    HUGS to you, and I hope something works out before the 27th.

    Best to that dear boy...I hope he starts feeling and looking better.

    Thanks Catty I owe you one ! this boy has been thru sooooooooooo much his dad (my hubby) had him until june of last yr and he has gone sooo downhill since and all we run into is he is with mama so all is well, dont rock the boat. I have to beg him to call to say night and thats not even mentioning the fact that he told dcfs (not us) that moms bf touches him "down there" when the bf thinks he is sleeping I am soooooooooooooo frustrated and angry that ppl will look the other way cause it is uncomfortable to be out on a limb.
    If he winds up a statistic guess what all these ppl will say? why didn't you protect him? *sob*

    This news is quite un -settling, to say the least. I don't think either Agency knows what is at stake right now!!!!

    Can you obtain a written "Health Assessment" ( evaluation) from his Pediatrician? Someone in the right field needs to blow a whistle ., as it certainly seems to me that everyone, but the child, is being protected.!!


    Someone has to speak on HIS behalf and the sooner the better!!!!!

    What a horrible insult!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    we have the letter kathy to para phrase and i will scan and email on request," in the best interest of this child returning to his previous caregiver would be a grave error, he has gained one pound in a yr in his mothers care and 2 pounds in 12 days in the care of his father and stepmother,,,,,,,,,,,"

    I figured as much!!!

    Okay, I think the "flaws" within Child Protection Agencies, as well as State to State Procedures are revealed in flying colors!!!!

    The RED TAPE trap has been set. I'll say this much, anyone who feels authorized to send that child back to a living HELL would have to break into my house and tear him away from me!!!!!

    I am sorry to vent and not help. I have never been personally involved with such a horrible situation .

    Oh, I've been through the Red Tape with our Medical System and with our so called Justice system , while taking care of my parents, but that is as close to your neck of the woods that I;ve been.
