"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." --- Winston Churchill

sorry for typos or general inarticulate wording, have sleeping infant in one arm.

i found you randomly online, to be honest not sure how - just cruising thru lj. i don't avtually hve any credentials. ;) then i heard about what happened. i am shocked, disgusted... and terrified. i am not a filthy person, but by no means am i neat. what if they try to take my baby away??

i myself have dealt with cps but for entirely different reasons, and i must say i despise them. my m,other actually WAS negligent, but they seized me from the home at 15 for truancy and cutting. they gave me a choice of where to go but they completely lied to me about where. they claimed that this place, andromeda house, was like an independent living program, and told my mother that the place was equipped to deal with my eating disorder and si (neither of which are issues now, incidentally). bullshit. i had to ask permission to move from room to room. uniforms... no music.. no outdoors... only allowed to call my mom once a week for 15 mins... family 6 hours away.. it was hell. they claimed they didnt 'cater' to vegetarians, so although i had started getting my period again during the 3 mos previous that i had been in an emergency shelter, but at AH i gained a ton of weight and stopped menstruating. they cleard up that issue during my 4th mo. or so when the genius director of the program discovered that the law said they HAD to cater to me. i spent 6 mos there.

i thought THAT was bad. i am so fucking appalled. they say you're an unfit mother? did they even fucking check on the foster parents? plz prdon my language. i have such a red bloody rage for the system.

my arm is aching from this 1 handed typing. i just want to say that my heart is aching for you - so much so that i have asked my hetero lifemate to chant for you [she is a practitioner of daishonin buddhism] - i hope you're not offended that i shared what little i know of your story w/her.

you don't really have to add me, tho i had thought a/b adding you before i knew of your story - but your friend of list is pretty intimidating. i just want you to know that there are people out there who are rooting for you.
