Back in care

Hi, don’t know what I’m looking for, really, to rant mostly I think, and some lovely sympathy.

I posted about 5 months ago about a foster to adopt/early permanence placement, where reunification took place after nearly 19 months.

the basis of mine and dh recovery was built on the foundation that it was the right thing for LO and therefore every painful moment of the process was in the best interest of LO, and we loved them SO much we would manage any personal pain for her.

a sledgehammer has been smashed straight in the middle of the notion that reunification was the best thing to do, as LO has been taken into care. No one wanted them to succeed more than we did, and now we are angry and anxious and broken, all over again. And I’m not sure how we pick ourselves back up again? SS have said they will pay to get our therapist back and that will help, but I don’t know how we rebuild the foundations this time?

anyone else been through this? X

Wow just read the whole thread and just wow, what a massive emotional roller coaster for you and of course your little one. Massive amounts of luck for transitions and the future. I really hope your family can get over the past few months xx
