Thank you for the support. I sometimes wish I could say my daughter had a problem that I could call mental that she owned but as of now she owns nothing. DENIAL is alive and well in her life. Good luck to you. Big Hugs also! Rosanne~

Hi tngrangran, I am sorry that I haven't been on DS lately. I've been kind of out of pocke, due to not feeling good and just being emotionally down. I have gone to the doctors and am on other medications and am feeling much better. Looking forward to school being out and doing some things that are fun this summer, with the kids and hubby. We are putting in a patio in the backyard so we can enjoy the back yard better...looking forward to it! Tell me how you are doing and what your plans are for the summer. TJane

Good Morning tngrangran, I know I worry if I will stay healthy enough to raise the boys. I pray and do my best to take care of myself, but that sometimes is the last thing I get to in a day. Look in the phone book under Legal Aid, I am sure there must be some free legal service in your area. You may have to show proof of income and all that, but it would be worth a try. I know you love all of your grandchildren and want to do what is best for them. Are there any other family members that might be younger and healthier to raise the younger ones? Take care of yourself...rest when you can, as often as you can and don't miss any doctor's visits. I will be praying for you and yours...take care. TJane

WE at this time have custody of the two oldest nut at one point we had custody of all four. the two we have are a 11 yr. old girl and a 5 year old boy both that has issues from the abuse they went thru. The two younger chldren are with friends of mine due to me having heart surgery for the second time.
