Thank you for sharing your story. What a difficult ordeal this must have been for you. I can only imagine that the additional factors of the impact on your children, and the fact that she is a family member made things even more complicated.

When you say that you would not have done the visits if L weren't family, is that only because you don't want her to know Mom considered placing? I ask because I think that T plans to only tell the baby that I am her godmother, and leave it at that. Also, you said that the visits were hard sometimes. Did they get better over time? Sorry if I'm being too intrusive. . . I just didn't think I'd actually come close to running across someone who experienced a similar situation!

Thanks,

Char
