I PM'd Kathy the information of the tribe as I don't feel comfortable posting that publically. I don't know why Amy doesn't want to live on the reservation where there are so very many resources there available to her. I am not concerned with Amy abusing the child as such or I would be the first to call social services, fallout be damned.

Perhaps I'm over reacting, but the lack of... maternal instinct, gives me cause for concern. I just cannot comprehend leaving your child in the hospital without being there. Visiting once or twice a week just blows my mind. Who is holding that baby and loving her? I've had a child in the NICU, the staff is excellent but they just don't have the time to give the infant that love and attention that is so needed for her to thrive and recover. Who is being the child's advocate now? When Amy last visited she complained that the nurse in charge of the baby was sick with a cold and did not want her caring for the baby because her immune system is not developed (YEA AMY!) But knowing this, how do you leave the child for several days once again?
