    Hi Susan!!

    I just cried so much when I saw your video and I hope that your ex gets what's coming to him. I was told to tell you to possibly try to contact the attorney general and maybe he could help. If I had $5,000, I'd give it to you. I also hope that you get to see your little girl soon.

    I'm so sorry you didn't get to see Sarahbeth on Saturday. I hope this starts moving in the right direction and soon. I cannot believe that this is Friday and the judge still has done nothing! I'm think of and praying for you both.

    Susan, please, look into hiring your daughter a guardian-at-lidem. She needs someone to advocate for her and her needs. They can get expensive but, you can petition the court to order him to pay half of it.
    Anything I can do, let me know.

    Susan,
    I feel for you and your daughter. My husband and I have been fighting this battle over my step-son in Ohio since 2002. Some very strong advice: LOG, LOG, LOG everything in a journal and (it IS legal where you live) tape record every conversation! You will need it. Prayers are with you.

    Will be praying for you. I hope to hear that everything is okay. Soon.

    Don't email, call every newspaper (even crappy little ones) in your area, every radio station newsdesk, every television station newsdesk, every city and county official, your state senators, your federal representatives and senators. Go ahead and cry if you must. Someone will help.

    I hope the Judge does do something about him missing the court ordered visit. If he doesn't it just shows that there is something fisy going on. Best wishes!

    My heart goes out to you, I can't imagine the situation you are in. I'll do my best to get word out for you.

    I was a non-custodial parent years ago. My heart goes out to you. Your separation from your daughter is abusive to the child and as you said in your motion, traumatic to both of you. I pray for all good things to happen in this case to safeguard mother and child from all negative influences.

    This may sound a little far fetched, but have you tried contacting Nancy Grace? She is always ripping judges she feels are unfair. I'm sure she has a website. It can't hurt. I'll be praying for you and your daughter. God Bless, Chloe

    I've got you in my thoughts and I'm contacting everyone I can. Let me know if there's ANYTHING I can do. Contact me through my page here or at AC. Keep fighting and we'll keep standing behind you.

    Hi Susan,
    I'm not sure if it will help, but I submitted your story to NBC for review, to see if maybe some National Media coverage can help to right the injustice that was done. I sent them the link to your page here,to read your story.
    You and your beautiful daugter will be in my prayers.

    Information has been passed over with a request to do a report to the West Plains paper, the Rolla paper and Rolla NPR, Also sent her info through the lawyers email for MO Family Advocacy Network in KC, And Legal Services for Abused Women out of St Louis. I am also contacting Gloria Alred.

  • Mary Ann Aug 13, 2007 @ 2:33 am | delete
    I have emailed the West Plains paper, the Rolla paper, and the Rolla PBS radio.

    I would have someone help you with a press release and send it, with a link to the youtube video, to every media outlet within approx 200 miles. Followup with network tv. it might get picked up nationally.

    I so pray that you can get help in your country and that she is home in your arms soon. This is so very wrong it amazes me that the USA and Canada seem to not care for THE RIGHTS OF THE CHILD at all. Here the child would get a free Lawyer just for themselves I am sure they would. Good luck
  • Melissa Aug 13, 2007 @ 12:12 am | delete
    I will add links on my blog and help get your story heard....stay strong, this is so wrong someone somewhere must do something to stop this.{{{hugs}}}from one loving mom to another.
  • Kelli Aug 12, 2007 @ 12:38 pm | delete
    Susan I am so sorry to hear about your situation. I'm also an AC writer and while I might not be able to help you locally I will put something on my blog. I have a friend in Missouri so I'll contact her and see if she has any suggestion. I'll keep you and your daughter in my thoughts.
  • MichelleLDevon Aug 12, 2007 @ 5:04 am | delete
    I will help spread the word on my blogs. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

    Getting the word out Susan. I'm doing what I can between prayers.

    I hope you can get a good lawyer (pro bono) and get your Daughter back. You are in my thoughts.
  • Shirley Hill Aug 10, 2007 @ 9:20 pm | delete
    Susan, I have been emailing people all day including your own West Plains Daily Quill. Please let me know what I can do. I'm calling all the friends I have about this. I would also like you to email me concerning some of the facts.

    I am very sorry for you and your daughter.I'd call your local news stations and discuss with then about putting this on the air. I don't know anything about the law so I can't help you, but know that you and your daughter are in my thoughts and I hope that you have her back in your arms very soon.
  • richmond46@msn.com Aug 10, 2007 @ 12:56 pm | delete
    One more thing. I would love to help and put your information on my website: www.bluecollarnews.com. Email me and lets talk. richmond46@msn.com or info@bluecollarnews.com. I guess I would like to verify some stuff first, given my recent experiences with my daughter.
  • Becky Gallops Aug 10, 2007 @ 12:56 pm | delete
    Susan if you need people to help get this info out to news agencies in your area, please just let me know. I can email all day if I need to. Also, you need to contact all your state legislators. Becky

    Hi Susan,
    I am not sure what I can do to help. However, I must say that at present, I am taking care of my granddaughter 18 months old. My daughter, married, both drug free, alcohol free. Yet I am in another state doing their job. I think this needs more investigation. Maybe more thought. Email me.
  • Shana Dines Aug 10, 2007 @ 9:47 am | delete
    What can we do to help you. I have been in a situation where I had to allow my kids to go with their father unless they refused or I knew he was drunk. They witnessed atrocities and he was later accused of molestation of his stepkids. Let me know what I can do. Sincerely Shana
