Twice. Once for 60 days in 1996 as family deemed me homeless. They proceeded to steal my daughter through the courts. I had done nothing to deserve it. Depression. No suicide attempts, just thoughts. Messed my daughter up and sent me into a hell for six straight years, fighting them in the courts to get full custody returned. Had the truth about what they all put her through in that house come out early on, I would no doubt had seen her returned to me. Wicked people doing wretched things. Took my money from me for her support in that hellish house, too. She was in an open dining room for her bedroom for those years. Three boys and NO PRIVACY!! She knows it messed her up. Don't believe guardian ad litem. They are there for their time and that's it. Not for the child. Liars!

Second time in 2009 for 22 days after losing so much sleep caring for my dying dad. Fourth stage lung cancer. I told them I could only do 3 days/week care, not 5 days/week. They would not listen. Told me to fill out paperwork to have him put in nursing home. Like I would do that to him! He wanted to die in peace at his apartment. I relive it when I talk about it, but would go through that just to help others learn not to be pushed around by family just because you are the one who "doesn't work". I went back to school in summer 2011, and still struggle to keep home and health.

In recent months someone decided it a good idea to bring old enemy back into our family camp, and now she divides it yet again. Cannot trust my family. I have other person for my emergency contact now. A real Christian lady with a wonderful husband. They know me. They care about me. They know how to pray. Thanking the Lord for them.
