Medical, Illness & Healing
Please open your heart to help a child never have to be put before her abused again. This is definitely something no one wants To talk about however this happens to 2 out of 4 girls. And this time my daughter is the victim of her own FATHER
and to make matters worse the Judge seems to be pro dad. He uttered the words “I’m sorry you are missing out on your parenting time with your daughter”
I couldn’t believe my ears. Thinking that the justice would be on the side of a child but apparently a man who has molested his own offspring has rights to them. Unless I can show up with a defense team to protect my child. I’m desperate to get the help to protect her from him ever hurting her again. We now find ourselves in this situation.
We ar in the midst of one of the most challenging situation no parent should ever face. I am taking my daughters father to court in pursuit of full custody with no visitation .
This decision does not come easily. March 6th my daughter came forward about her father abusing her. This last month has been hell for her. Its been hell for me to even take in that the father of my child is a monster. All I know as a mother who loves my daughter dearly my daughter is no longer safe in her fathers care. She expressed she never wants to see her father again. She is afraid for her life at this point because she spoke out and knows her father will be angry.
Come to find out hes been molesting her for some time now. The first time it happened she ran to tell her grandmother ( bios dads mother) Grandmother immediately called my daughters father to the room to let him know what my daughter just expressed to her. He of course yelled at my daughter and scared her to death. My daughter trusted an adult to protect her and that person failed to do so. Neither adult ever came to me to let me know about that incident. Years later here we are. My brave daughter finally came to me for help.
I started my daughter with an amazing therapist who specializes with sexual abuse victims. These visits have become quite costly for my family and I. We also received horrific news today in court that my daughters predator (Father) wants monitored visits with her. My daughter doesn't ever want to be in his presence. She is afraid he will hurt again. I was able to meet with an attorney today who made me feel we have a chance to help this case and save my child. Our next court hearing is May 3rd. We are at our final hours of being able to retain the attorney to appear on our court date.
We need help with the attorney / therapy fees.
Prayers for my daughter would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Court will reconvene June 5th. We are still in need of prayers and donations. Judge ruled for in child’s favor for her to have her own counsel. This will help give her a voice in the court. Please share and prayers will be greatly appreciated
