HOSPITAL INFORMS PARENTS THAT THEIR CHILD DIED OF A BRAIN BLEED, BUT WILL NOT RELEASE AUTOPSY RESULTS

Foster Parents Tell Child That His Parents Do Not Love or Miss Him and Also Force Children to Call Them “Mommy” and “Daddy” or They Will be Disciplined

On May 27 2021. I went to work and my fiancé’s mom was watching all four of my kids. All four kids were fine the whole day. I got off work and went to the grocery store for dinner that night and I started cooking after I finished. Then I started studying for my upcoming Certified Nurse Assistant exam.

My fiancée’s mom fed my twin boys their bottles and put them in the crib around 6:00 PM.  She checked on them all through the night. She woke up to check on the twins around 3:00 AM and found one of my twins unresponsive. We called 911 and they walked us through CPR until the cops and ambulance got there. They rushed him to Children’s Mercy in Kansas City, Missouri, and they tried to bring our son back to life but they could not.

We came home hours later and Kansas City Police Department (KCPD) cops were at our door. They told us that we needed to come down to the police station to answer questions. We answered all of their questions. While we were at the police station, Child Protective Services (CPS) was called. They took our children from us at our house and rushed them to Children’s Mercy so they could get examined. We went there and after we talked to the police, Children’s Mercy escorted them off of their property and they would not let us see our kids.

The autopsy results came back undetermined. KCPD closed their Investigation. Nobody was charged. Children’s Mercy said that he had a brain bleed. Both of my twins were premature babies and brain bleeds are common among premature babies. I told CPS that and they would not believe me. Children’s Mercy never showed us proof of the brain bleed. We asked numerous times and we never got a reason why we could not have the documents.

Children’s Mercy is saying that all four of my kids were abused and neglected. That is not true. They always went to their doctors’ appointments. I never abused my kids. I love my kids and I would never hurt them. I’m a great mom.

It’s been two years and I have not gotten my kids back. I completed every class that CPS asked me to do. I did a hair follicles test, parenting classes, and I never missed a visit with my kids. On my last court date, they changed the goal to Termination of Parental Rights. Ever since they changed the goal, I have not been getting my visits with my kids. I am supposed to get four hours a week but, every time I confirm my visit with the Parent Aide, she will say, “yes, I’ll see you tomorrow” and then something always happens. For example, she will text me that morning and say the kids are sick or that she had a family emergency or she is sick or the kids are on vacation. I asked her if we could reschedule or why is it always happening and she always gets an attitude with me. She will tell me that I need to get in contact with my social worker.

I had a meeting with the supervisor and she seemed like she understood me and was going to help me. She had a meeting with the whole team today and they decided that since my kids are getting upset when they come to our house, they are going to do a therapeutic visit with the therapist one hour a month. So, therefore, they took my four hours a week away from me leaving me with one hour per month. I do not believe that my kids are getting upset when they get ready to come to my house because when they pull into the driveway, they scream and yell and say, “mommy daddy, we miss you so much!”

On October 17, 2022, my three-year-old son threw himself on the ground and told us that he was not going back to the foster family’s house. I had to bribe him with a blanket so he would get into the Parent Aide’s car and return to the foster family’s house.

My children are always asking me when are they going to come home. They scream and yell when it is time for them to return to the foster family, but this is not reported to the courts. My social worker is impossible to get in touch with. I have to call her for a whole month before she even responds.

We are not invited to Family Support Team meetings or to doctors’ appointments. We cannot even go to our kids’ first day of school. We have never been invited to any school activities programs, etc. My five-year-old child has told me numerous times that the foster mom tells him I do not love or miss him. My six-year-old child told me that the foster family is forcing them to call them “mommy” and “daddy” and if they do not, they get yelled at.

I am a great mom and I deserve my kids back.
