My sister called last night and told me a sad story. Her Godchild (47) and her husband were killed in a car wreck. Their 4 year old son was in hid carseat in the back of the car when the car caught fire. A wonderful woman faced the flames and rescured the boy (he had one broken bone). So sad.
Sadder yet...the authorities have still not allowed the grandparents to even see the child. They placed the child in Foster Care "where they know he will be safe". It has been four weeks and nobody has been able
to see or hold him! The only good thing is that he is "allowed" to go to the same babysitter during the day.
Most of us write down what to do after death but evidently you should have a document saying what to do if you become disabled or die so there is a specific designated guardian of YOUR choice for your child. What a tragedy! His Aunt went to Court this week to gain custody and it is expected it will be approved. The whole family is exempleary (sp) so I was shocked. Thought I'd sound a warning. DDD
