Journal Entry for February 25, 2008 Mood
Monday, February 25, 2008

I haven't been on this site in many months. Things have been going on in life that I am dealing with (child custody, work, life, my mother, etc) and just haven't wanted to write them down...I was shocked in December when my soon to be ex husband tried to use my journal entries for DS against me in our custody battle...as if writing and seeking help is a bad or harmful thing. I guess he looked at this as an edge or advantage for him. What is the world coming to when another personal will and can use journal enteries that are non harmful or violent against them to win a custody battle.???

 

My mom was just diagnosised with brain cancer and had a softball size tumor removed 3 weeks ago. I am moving her to my house because i want to be near her and she needs special care..and am fighting my custody battle..What doesn't kill you ....makes you stronger!

Journal Entry for September 8, 2007 Mood
Saturday, September 8, 2007

I am stressed beyond belief. I am taking a job in WA..leaving my son behind in hopes that I can be granted the permission to take him out of the state with me. I signed my divorce papers on the 7th and am waiting that to be final. There is so much in life that is up in the air and that realization frightens me.. stresses me out and scares me. I will be without my son (whom I have never not seen daily for 5 years) for an undisclosed amount of time.. just because his dad wants to fight me..

 

I AM SCARED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Awww hun I am so sorry that you have to be dealing with this right now!!! My mother went through the EXACT same thing with my real father when they got divorced-

    Even though he was physically abusive to me, he STILL tried to fight for me for him to have custody- had to testify as to WHY I didn't feel safe with him, and they took my word for it, obviously, I wouldn't lie about being abused by my father-

    Anyway, I hope things work out for you- in most cases, judges grant the mother the full-custody of the child; I don't know why, but in Wisconsin anyway, they almost ALWAYS do. Weird.

    I hope it works out for you- you deserve it hunnie. If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask me!!! Luv ya lots girlie. xoxo
