Keep Lana in your prayers
We received some bad news today that tomorrow Social Services goes to court to state the case for Lana. Our Social Worker informed us that there is a very large possibility that the Judge will not place Lana in protective custody with the county, (to stay with us) because the parent's drug tests came back negative. We're not sure how this happened, as Lana was born drug positive and she has been going through withdrawals but nevertheless they did come back negative. With this in mind it's pretty hard for Social Services to state a case of protective custody.
This is the hardest part of being a Foster Parent, I fear for this little one's return to her parents, she is currently on medication that needs to be given to her consistently 3x a day, if she does not receive her medication she could suffer with seizures, and possibly death. I am so very worried for her and the possibility of being placed in her parents care.
The other really "big" problem to this whole thing, is that if Lana is placed with her parents then Luis and Luhani's case plan will change from a TPR (Termination of Parental Rights) track to a reunification, that would mean that they could possibly go back to their parents as well.
For those of you who are our friends and family, please keep Lana in your prayers tonight. I know that Heavenly Father will protect her and there is a plan for her. All we can do this night is to pray and put our trust and faith in Heavenly Father to keep her safe and healthy.
