Vanessa Saunders hasn't added a story.
Several years ago my children were ripped from their home by "their father" and the politically corrupt legal system. I use the term father loosely because up until this point he had no involvement in their physical or financial well being. They were used as pawns to "make me pay" for wrongs he felt I had done him. They have been uprooted from their lives and alienated from me and the rest of their family based on lies, manipulation, and money. They are emotionally neglected and used as leverage, child support payments and food stamp/insurance money with no regard to their emotional well being. The anxiety that this has caused my 7 year old son has made him chronically constipated to the point that he no longer has control over his bowels and he soils himself without even knowing it's happening. He needs medical treatment, but instead when he is in his father's care he is thrown in cold showers and taunted for having accidents. I finally have enough documentation and evidence of the neglect and abuse that my children have had to endure and testimony of an expert witness that is going to get my children out of this devastating situation and bring them home. I am raising money to help with the retainer fee to hire an attorney that is adequately trained in handling situations like this. I hate asking for help, but I have to move quickly to getting the first paperwork filed to stop the abuse that's taking place and get my son proper medical treatment as quickly as possible. Any contribution of any size will be great help and appreciated so much!
