Story

I am a single mom to my 12 year old son. A little backstory about our journey, my son was born in 2012. I maintained primary custody of him, not legal custody, until I was incarcerated in 2018 due to my addiction. At that time he resided with his father, who in his mind was doing the best he knew how to do. As far as everyone knew, he had filed for and was granted full custody of our son. After 5 1/2 years of being away, I came home May 31, 2023. In August, I received a call from the local police department asking if I had my son and if he was safe to remain in my care. Of course he was, and a CPS case with a safety plan went into affect. My son has been primarily with me, while I am rebuilding my life from scratch. I work a full time and part time job to be able to make sure bills are paid, he has the things he needs and wants, therapy, school supplies, etc. I’ve been sober for 6 1/2 almost 7 years and wouldn’t dream of looking back towards my old life. But this mama is tired.

 

Any help is appreciated.
