Desperately Requesting Prayers *Update Pg. 4*

[catherine]

I am so sorry for your family's loss. I will keep you and your family, especially the little boy in my thoughts. Best wishes and positive thoughts coming your way!

 

[Alicia87]

Once again, thanks to everyone for the prayers! Prayers are all we have right now. My family is so grateful for the prayers of those who knew and loved my extraordinary cousin because she was not in any pain whatsoever the final few days of her life. God really does work miracles to this day and we know that it is only from His blessings that she did not suffer.

Thank you again and may God bless each and every one of you!

I'm sorry for you loss!

Has anyone in your family petitioned for custody of the child? If he has not been an active part in the child's life, you may be able to terminate his parental rights. Also, if he is addicted to drugs, it is doubtful that he will want to spend the money on an attorney to fight for the child.

I am so glad you brought that up. I was wondering the same thing. What kind of a life is that poor child going to have? I pray more that he has a family member who will fight for him, and prove to the judge that the father is unfit. And yes, I am very sorry for your loss and extremely sorry for that poor innocent child.
Please keep us posted about the child's safety.

Sorry didn't read all the posts. Just got all caught up in it when I read Dana's response. I will continue to pray though that one of his aunts can take him. As I said keep us updated please.

I missed this the first time. So sorry that your family has had to go through this. It must be so hard for all of you, especially this little boy. Can't imagine what he is feeling.

Casey,

Thanks so much for the continued interest! Things are still in limbo here with my cousin's little boy. He is, however, now getting to visit with my aunt and uncle (his grandma & grandpa) as well as my cousin's two sisters. The court had to be petitioned, and they granted my family temporary visitation (which consists of every Wednesday evening and every other weekend). A final hearing is set for March 14th in which we are hoping my aunt and uncle will get more visitation and summer vacation set.

His mommy's death has taken such a toll on him. He cries and screams when he has to go back to his dad's. Begs my aunt not to make him go back (remember, she has raised him since he was a baby because she took care of my cousin every single day for the 3 1/2 yrs. she suffered with breast cancer). It is so very heartbreaking. They had a surprise b-day party for him in February which consisted of everything planned that my cousin wanted to do for him this year had she survived. He seemed to enjoy it, but when asked why he was "sad", he said he just wanted his mommy for his b-day....absolutely heartbreaking.

His dad is still as worthless as ever, goes as far as giving away all his books his mommy used to read to him at bedtime and tells him he's "too old" for a nighttime story....WTH!?!?!? He's 6 years old!!!! Made him throw away his spiderman toothbrush because he needed to "get a real man's toothbrush". Gage got it out of the trash can when his dad fell asleep and hid it in his room cause he wanted to keep it cause mommy bought it. Dad also threatens to throw away his blanket that he sleeps with if he's bad (it was his mommy's breast cancer blanket and he never leaves it anywhere). He's just a horrible, horrible human being.

Continued prayers and prayers for the hearing on the 14th would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Thanks again for asking!

How could somebody be so cruel? Makes me want to cry.

I have a 6yo who has not lost anyone who gets so attached to his belongings and we respect that whenever possible. We did have to throw away his toothbrushes lately (drs orders) because he had strep throat and Jake was so upset. We had others and Jake adjusted, but if he hadn't I would have brought him to the store and allowed him to pick out his choice of toothbrushes.

How sad that this boys sperm donor doesn't understand basic parenting. The court should require him to take a parenting course before he has custody of the boy. I can't imagine the constant ache that the little guy feels. They just don't understand at this age.

My heart just breaks for that little boy. He is definitely in my thoughts and prayers. I am keeping the hearing in my deep prayers as well. Please keep us posted.

 

[Denine]

I am so sorry for all you are going through.

How awful for that little boy. I hope the court wisens up and realizes that this child is not where he belongs for his best interest. That "man" is so cruel.

 

[L107ANGEL]

I am sorry I didn't see this when it first happened. First hugs and prayers to you all!
What that man is doing to that little boy is wrong to every degree!! Can the courts order the boy and his father into some grief counceling? Maybe Daddy dearest will then see what he is doing to that precious child!
God bless and keep the faith!!

 

[casey49781]

i am so sick by this situation,,please keep me posted,,,prayers will be said by my family daily,,,

 

[Dan Murphy]

So sad to hear that about little Gage. Hope it goes well on the hearing.

 

[JoiseyMom]

I see that you family has petitioned the court for visitation. Have they considered petitioning for full custody, based on the fact that they have helped raise him, and that they would be better guardians, since that would be in the best interest of the child? Has the court appointed a guardian ad litem for him? This would be a person who's concern's would only be the best interest of the child.

My thoughts are with you and your family.
