Hi my name is Angie and I am from Phoenix, AZ. My grandson was born with LCDH. He was born at 33 weeks and had surgery at 10days old weighing only 3lbs. My grandson is now 14months old and although all looks good with his CDH battle I now have a battle with CPS. He was taken from my daughter as soon as he was released from the hospital at 3months old. He is in a foster home with a nursing student who has now made it a mission to adopt him and has been reporting that when we visit him we are not caring for him properly. I have taken several classes to learn to care for him but does not seem to be enough. His foster mom reports lie after lie to CPS about what his Dr's are saying. I have been to all his appointments and the Dr's all say how great he is doing and not needing to see him for 4months because of his progress. When we go to court a totally different story is reported. If we question it we are the bad guy and get reported for questioning this professional nursing student. I know I am capable of caring for him but feel like now I have to go to nursing school to prove it. I need prayer please ,I feel so helpless. I have done all that I think I need to do and have hired an attorney. Not one person there knows about CDH and are only going by what is reported.

    Dear Angie,

    I'm so sorry to hear about this struggle. I pray that this situation comes for the best out come for your grandson.
    I too had a situation with CPS with my CDH survivior, fortunately CPS couldn't find any problems, so who ever reported me was blowing smoke.

    All I can say is just keep trying because in the end he will know you have not given up on him. I will keep in my prayers as well as you. Caring for a CDH baby (depending on his/her case) can be easy or hard, but they didn't give you a chance to prove your abilities as a caregiver. HUGS for this difficult road.
