Life as I know it has changed. I don't know where to start and it is a long story. In short, Keith Mother is in the hospital. Keith nephews are with us, K is 12 & W is 9. We are trying to find out who has legal custody. Maybe 8/18/05 Keith' s mother will be released. Not sure. Two weeks ago she was evicted from her Apt. And is basically homeless. Thus the boys have no where to live. Have been running around to get thing for them since all they came to us with was the clothes on their back.
Pray.............W is ADHD he's like a 3 year old in a 9 year old's body. We are trying to get then clothes & toys. Donations accepted. Right now they share a mattress on T & E's floor. T & E are sleeping with us. 4 people in a small 2 bed room is cozy. Hoping the social worked will call me back so I know what to do as far as who they "belong to." BTW where is their mom??? Well, in a motel druging it up. I don't think she knows that we have then boys until she called for $$ from Keith's Mother. Hoping to get them registered for school so they can start ASAP. This is Keith's 1st week back with kids at school. Our home is a mess. We have not seen each other since Monday, I called in to work so I could take the boys to Target for undies, socks & shoes. I have no idea what ans why God is allowing these two boys to have such a crappy life. Or why we have them 9 years later, after they took them away from us. I have no clue what to do. How to feel. I am so tired I can't sleep, think or anything. I want what is best for them. I just have now clue. W does not want me to leave for work for fear I won't return. K told Keith tonight that he wants to stay with us and not got back with Grandma. We can't afford to double our kid capacities. We have don't have enough room for us let alone two boys. I just don't know what to think or do. What is next? Where do I go? Why can't I get answers? Why is it taking so long to get my phone calls return? Lord, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!Help I am lost and I just don't what is going on. It all is happening so fast.
