been sick since the 80's had 3 children. Abusive ex used the fact my kids missed school due to lyme/bartonella. I've had only supervised visits for almost 4 years.
He constantly trys to hurt me threatening court for different things Im on ss disability and he gets almost the whole check. My parents in their 80's are helping pay for visits.
My oldest daughter just passed away not treated right in the state she lived in had lyme and co infections.
I'm so in despair so hopeless because I should not be kept away from my own children for no reason, Its unbearable. I don't the money to fight him anymore,any ideas? I had no due process no defense but no one cares

Hi. I am so sorry. I also got sick in early 80 s and raised four kids
Husband was not physically abusive but not supportive of lyme and described as passive aggressive by therapists. I divorced him because they said i should and it was the best thing for all of us
The school accused me of "neglect" because i couldnt get the youngest to wake up for school. That is when i went outside my comfort zone and took her to the "wierd" doc in town...none of the other docs were able to dx her or me
This doc sent to igenex and we all ended up getting dx and txed eventually
Our stories reflect the horror caused by this messed up medical system
My situation turned out much better than yours for some reason. But it has not been a happy ending. We are all still strugling with illness both physical and mental left by lyme
Im not sure what advice to give you right now
But you have come to the right place. There are many here who. Understand and can help in different ways
For me just knowing i am not the only one going thru this is helpful
Keep coming back and you will find support
I am so sorry. I have fruends who have lost children and i cant imagine anything worse

I am sorry nursejed1. Where is justice? The sick and the meek in this world get trampled. I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter and the loss of
your health and income and other children not being in your home. We have to take it one day at a time, sometimes one hour at a time.Peace to you.

Well first of all, I am so very sorry for the loss of your child. I can't even imagine the hell that is.
Is it possible for you to petition the court for custody of your other children, based on the fact that your other child passed away while NOT in your custody and therefore did not receive appropriate medical care?
