Thoughts from a Mom

via Angel Linthicum Cook

I sit here and cant help but think about the heartache we have endured this past year...i can't help but think about my baby boy who passed away and all that he suffered at the hands of his bio mom and the 8 men who physically and sexually assaulted him prior to turning 2 leaving him with anal warts and the hiv antibody. ...i can't wrap my eyes around the fact that they walk free today.

...I can't help but think about the social workers who hid his cps records and hiv status from police detectives, the district attorneys and the media.

...I can't help but think of how my 7 children felt being ripped from our non abusive home and placed in separate foster homes from each other and not being aloud to attend their brothers viewing and being banned from having any visits from friends or family members...as well as being told we didn't love them, we didn't want them and they would never see us again...and then being left in a home where they were sexually abused and even beaten and told "not to tell" for 377 days.

...I can't help but think about all the nights they cried their selves to sleep at night not knowing their futures while we fought hard everyday to prove that an agency was behind our false charges.

...I can't help but think about the medical examiners who walk free today after altering my sons autopsy to help warrant cps wrongful removal of my children which in turned got us arrested on the same charge twice....

...I can't help but think about all we missed out on....birthdays, Mother's Day, Father's Day, a whole year of memories and milestones.....and the mere fact that it cost us well over $126,000 dollars to prove our innocents and bring our babies home all because a social worker chose coverup over truth.......

...I can't help but think that these CRIMINALS still hold their jobs today....5 social workers, 2 supervisor and 1 medical examiner ultimately decided to ruin a non offending family of 9 lives for what? ........ we were a ordinary family trying to raise our 6 biological children and adding to beautiful angels who suffered abuse at the hands of the person who was suppose to love them... instead she left 1 in a tent to die for 3 days at only 6 weeks of age....then she left her 2 year old to fight off the 8 men who repeatedly sexually assaulted him and beat him leaving him to fear all people while she drank and gambled.......

...we never know why God leads us down certain roads in life....but one thing is for certain...my adoptive son grew to know what true love was, he learned forgiveness and he learned that there really are people out there that care...and most importantly my son learned that he was truly loved by God, my husband, myself and my 7 other children....This yr has brought a lot of heartache and tears but the one thing that remains is our faith in God and our love for one another...CPS tried to break that. ...but learned all to well that bond COULD NOT BE BROKEN.....today I'm thankful my kids were returned after 377 days of hell all at the hands of an agency built to protect children but instead hurt, let down and lost the trust of 7 beautiful God fearing children.......today I'm thankful for the many friends and family members who covered us in prayer and stood beside us thru all the built up lies that cps made....and today I'm thankful that my son Is in heaven in the arms of Jesus with no memories of the pain and heartache he suffered prior to my home.....i miss him more than anything in this world and I would give anything to hold him,and tell him I love him one last time. .........he was my gift from God and I wouldn't take back one day that God gave me with him...
