My ex is trying to take my son
I am going threw a divorce right now, we had the final hearing yesterday. My ex husband wants full custody and so do I. The judge wants the lawyers to each put together a facts sheet and submit it by July 21st before she makes a decision. Just to give you some background info we separated in Dec 07 I found out he was cheating on me, he was moved in with this girl within 2 weeks! They bought a house together in Feb 08 and also got ingaged that same month and now I find out she is a couple of months pregnant. All of this happened within a period of 6 months!! (She already has 3 kids) I am not a saint myself just have to be honest. I stguggled with alcholism in the past but I have been sober since Oct 07, when I got sober that is when the things that were going on started to make sense. I realized the life I was living wasn't the life I wanted for me and my kids, I wanted better. So I got sober went to rehab and regularly attend AA meetings. I am concerned that because of my past I will not get custody of my son even though I am doing the right thing now. It just sucks to think this woman can step in destroy my family then be full time guardian with my ex, she is trying to be mom to MY son. She will never take my place, my son and I are inseparable. Please Help!!
