Many of you that know my family, know that it is a constant struggle with my sister Michelle. It is a never ending battle with her. It is heartbreaking to watch her ruin 
her life and the life of her innocent kids. Michelle has been heavily into drugs for some time now, and was court ordered to finish a rehab, and never did. Since she walked from the center she has continued to down fall. She hasn't had a job in probably 2 years, no place to live, and the worst part has basically given up on her kids. Her kids mean the world to us. My nephew Brayden lived with us last year and he and Molly became best of friends. When we got Brayden he was just starting Kindergarten. He new nothing. Not even letters. He tested as the lowest kid in the entire school. It was so fun to watch him thrive as the year went on. He learned to read anything put in front of him, math, writing, etc. He loved school. By the end of the year he tested the highest in fact at a 2nd grade level. My sister and her husband had my niece Kylah who was 2 and basically addicted to drugs, way malnourished, and out of control. She also thrived into a whole new girl. Over Christmas break they were with their other grandparents visiting, and their dad came and took them for good. He is also a drug addict and abusive. He doesn't want the kids at all but just wants to make my sister mad. We have no contact with the kids now, we don't know where they live and their dad has blocked every number we try to call from. We are constantly worrying and praying that the kids will be safe but it is out of our control. My sister has custody of the kids but she is not changing her ways to get them and take care of them.

This weekend we got a phone call from Michelle saying she was arrested and taken to jail. Which is actually probably the best place for her because we know she is safe, off drugs, has a bed,and getting fed. She calls everyday multiple times begging to be bailed out. It is difficult to sit back and watch this all happen. The hardest part is not seeing the kids, and not knowing if we ever will. We just hope and pray that one day Michelle will take control of her life and start putting her kids first. I don't know how anyone could ever let their kids go, they deserve so much more.

Megan, I'm so sorry. We will definitely keep Michelle and her kids in our prayers as well as you and your family. I hope that everything works out for the best!
That is heart breaking. I will keep them in my prayers. I am sure you guys made a BIG difference.
I, too, am so sad to hear how hard life has been for Michelle and her kids. We hope and pray that she'll take the initiative to regain hope and volition in her life and that her little ones somehow are being watched over wherever they are. I can't imagine how hard that would be! We pray that Brayden and Kylah will be protected and reunited with those who truly love them.
we will keep them in our prayers! This story makes me want to cry, kids are so innocent and the best thing in my life, hopefully someday that will be realized
I hope that something will work out for the kids. This all hits very close to home for me. We will keep your family in our prayers.
