• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

My sister recently had a stillborn, received many prayers for this loss on another thread.

Now it is worse, right at my doorstep, like the Lord has brought this upon me to deal with in good faith. This I will do.

My sister has 3 other little boys, 7, 3 and 1 and the Social Services is ready to take them away from her.. My sister tested positive for Cocaine in the Hospital after her loss, she is crying so hard and mourning over the loss. She admitted to me she did some and only once... The Doctor said the baby in her womb did not die of drug abuse.. tested the baby.. I cannot really judge her but bring her to love our Lord and love her also.. hate never solves anything.

I live in a state away from her and she came here with all her kids and willing to stay with me and start a new life. The other state will be coming to mine to check on the children, which are all in good health and praying and hoping they let these children be with thier Mother and start a new.

By taking away the children and placing them in Foster homes is something I cannot think of, if I have to, I will Foster them. But this should be done with love with the Mother and not against her... love is stronger then any hate or to non-support for any user of drugs. I was one before and lessons we learn from mistakes.

Pray for this family

Thank you and bless you all

Thank you all for the prayers.. to all...


Social Services said today that my sister needed to return to her state and her home for a house visit...since they do not have jurisdiction, she needed to return.

My husband brought her home... Caseworker is there now and talking.. my husband, bless his heart, is helping her and try to ask for her to be able to keep the children and we will help her... these kids are far from neglect, seen this with my own eyes.. especially the 1 yr old.. he is so close to Mama and will not go to anyone..

Please let her keep her babies and let these kids have family in thier lives...
