[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 684272, member: 11791"] If the dad is terminally ill... I don't know how social services work where you are. Here, they have specific accommodations for this kind of a case. Dad terminally ill, Mom "walked out", grandma willing to be involved but not able to raise him. They would set up a long-term foster situation, where the foster family takes him for short spells on a regular basis to give the Dad a break, and the kid learns that if anything happens to Dad, these people will look after him. HERE, they also LOVE to have grandparents involved. You would get to keep doing all the grandparent things, because it's part of the stability of this child. This set-up seems to be handled positively if the ill parent steps forward and asks for help - rather than it being a CPS case. [/QUOTE]
