Dana will always be a mother to her two sons. One day they will come back to her. We miss them so very much. It is sad that the judicial system is helping to keep a mother from her children.lexleshehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12495660268307124556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5510198324204233853.post-6026732757943536632012-07-13T21:40:45.317-04:002012-07-13T21:40:45.317-04:00My name is Dana Ruppert.

Mickey was born in November, 2004. I had a joint managing custody agreement in place from April, 2005 until the Montgomery County Court dismissed it due there not being a legal dispute with Stephanie and I at the time the judge signed the order in 2005. I was shocked by the decision and when I think about how empty I feel without him (and my other son that my standing was dismissed last October), I hurt even more thinking about how they feel with the courts the trust to protect them fail them. I am and will always be their Mom. I pray that this will be reversed. The system needs to change. Our children deserve better.Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16121482022682258413noreply@blogger.com
