Success story 4all 2 read

[Cieves]

We'll I lost my kids 2 social services on feb this yr through my drug addiction and violent relationship with ther father, my 1st social worker was very negative and I was glad a new 1 had taken over my case in July, I done rehab and a parenting class and a domestic violence awareness course, also went bk 2 do my maths and English,, and now I'm glad 2 say that my overnites have started and Ss r hoping that my kids will b bk full time by feb,, I thought I would never get them back but it shows that if u do everything they ask 4 urself and kids u will get them back,, not all social workers are bad!!! Good luck xxx

Thank u,, I have been fighting so so hard these last 8 mths n I always thought that any thing I do wud b good enough,, the 1st social worker I had told me I wouldn't get them bk in less than 2 and a half yrs then my new 1 has started my overnites already n is hoping 2 have them bk full time by feb! I think it's to do with the social worker u get,, my 1st 1 had me failed b4 I even started n I was so happy when I got moved 2 the lac team. Xxx

Congratulations, I am appearing in court on Monday to apply for increase in contact, my son is placed with my half sister on a SGO. my sister is opposing it, but I have been working hard on my addiction and are now over 8 months clean. My sister carries a lot of bitter resentment and is telling her solicitor she suspects I am still using and selling my body. This upsets me and I hope and pray the truth will come out soon. It is very nice to hear you have come through addiction and domestic violence and are able to spend quality time with your children... Enjoy and good luck!
