I never ever thought I would be making this request of my friends and it is so humbling.

Fast forward to today, we both attended a hearing and my granddaughter and her 4 year old special needs brother (no blood relations to me) had been made wards of the court. We both had already decided that we could never let either one of them be put in the foster care system.

We have been awarded total custody of both of them indefinately and they will be living with us. They both will be receiveing the love and care that they need!

Thanks you my friends for any prayers and/or good thoughts, I'm sure that I will be needing them!

That's unreal Larry - kudos to you for stepping up. I have two girls around the same age - let me know if there's anything you need as far as clothes or anything like that.

Hang in there brother. He's not worth the bullet needed but I think we'd all be willing to do it if it happened to our kids. I don't know you, never met you, but anyone that would do the right thing in taking these children into their home is good people in my book.

Very sad for the child to have to go through that, but thank God they have somebody like you to take them in. Wishing you all the best!

You are truly remarkable people to do something like this. Just starting to get to know you but this really shows true character. As for the stepfather, he'll get whats coming to him, remember its not worth it especially for the children's sake bc they need you around. My prayers and thoughts will be going out to you.

Wow, sorry to hear Larry. That's great you are stepping up to watch over them!

As hard as it is to show restraint on the monster that did this to your grandkids, remember they need you more than ever now so don't do anything to mess that up. Karma is a bitch and he'll get what's coming to him... probably in prison while taking a shower!

Larry, way to step up man. My prayers go out to your family during what is sure to be a difficult road back to some sense of normal. I hope and pray that your granddaughter suffers no long term emotional troubles from this ordeal.

And I said a few words to the Big Fella that this ^ would come to fruition :thumbsup:
