I try and pray everyday for some type of release from hurt and pain.

When your child has been injured at no fault of their own but it alters their ability  to handle life and all it has to offer.

This is a serious unexpected turn in my life that I didn’t foresee.

My child was shot in the brain and it was life or death to have the surgery.

Yes, he survived the surgery and the misguided child that shot him. It left us with more than pain or the why’s.

My grown, child is suffering from PTSD but will not get help because he thinks it’s embarrassing and people will look at him differently.

I say screw them, because we all are different and no one can help you but God. 

The other misfortune is the fact that he had kids by a woman that is a manic depressant. And has tried suicide more than twice. 

So, here we are! 

Who is raising the kids? Grandma of course.

One grandma when they have other grandparents on the mother’s side of the family that refuse to help care for them.

I am loving and kind but I too have suffer a brain injury. I had a stroke along with other health problems that was brought on by taking prednisone for eight years straight for sacoridosis. No Doctor caught it until years later.

I am a strong character but I am also getting up in age. And I raised my son.  

Because of this, I am not able to work my jobs I set out to do. I am a licensed insurance agent and a notary public. And do substitute teaching when I am able with kids that have special needs. 

The sad thing is the fact that the courts makes it so hard to give custody after knowingly that these issues exist. No one listens anymore.

No help with nothing. No food , no financial help or even enrolling them in school.

So, who do I turn to? 

All these road blocks,

You need permanent custody to add to your housing. But when the parents has dumped them on me and refuses to get them and take care of them.

Where do I turn to?

They are living their own places and have room for the kids but I am in my one bedroom with two kids with no  help.

I know God
