Children Freed For Adoption On Falsified Evidence

hello and welcome to P.A.F.A (Parents Against Forced Adoption or Parents Always Falsely Accused) it depends which way you look at it.
I am setting this site up tonight in support of the parents with learning difficulties who had their children abducted by the GESTAPO for nothing! Social services departments all over Britain think that disabled people cannot bring up children this is totally untrue. I am registered as blind as was brought up by a partially sighted mum and a blind dad i'm here I reached adulthood for goodness sake. What I aim to do is expose this prejudiced attitude by sharing my story.
I gave birth to child 1 in November 1996 He was born with congenital cataracts which meant he was born blind. He was operated on at 10 weeks old and things were successful. 4 months later I had met a guy after splitting up with child 1's father and was pregnant again. The pregnancy was awful I had a split pelvis and was in a lot of pain. i was in hospital for 2 weeks and missed child 1. Child 1 was being cared for by my parents. I gave birth to child 2 in December 1997 he was also born with congenital cataracts. I was in hospital after the birth of child 2 for 10 days and child 2 was sent home with me as healthy. He kept crying in hospital and the midwives kept telling me to settle him down. When I got home with child 2 he was constantly crying.I told numerous professionals who said that he had colic. I got no sleep and started to hallucinate and I became very depressed. I got to a stage where I wanted to leave child 2 in a phone box (I never did) but that is how bad things had got. Child 2's feeding was not good either he would not take his milk and i was accused of not feeding him and I had the midwife saying that he was not 'safe' with me. I had done absolutely nothing to harm child 2 but he was still constantly crying. I got to a stage where I had had enough and foned social services for help. It was 11pm and they could not be bothered to come out so they had sent a taxi for my partially sighted mother. Mum came down and child 2 was still crying. Mum told me to phone the doctor so after phoning numerous night doctors a doctor came out to look at my son. The next minute there was an AMBULANCE outside my front door waiting to take child 2 (who had been screaming for 6 whole weeks constantly) to hospital. The doctor had found that my poor little baby had got a HERNIA in his groin and he had had this SINCE HE WAS BORN. so-called professionals were looking for abuse but there was no abuse the child was sick for goodness sake. There were more problems in store for me with child 2. Child 2 was taken into hospital on the Friday night and I was told he was going to have his operation on Wednesday morning. Wednesday morning came around and the doctor told me that he could not operate because child 2 was having an operation on his eyes in 2 weeks time. a district nurse had phoned the hospital expressing concerns about child 2 having 2 lots of anaesthetic in such a short space of time. This led me to endure 2 more weeks of no sleep and child 2's constant crying. I was barely eating, I would come across as aggressive towards other people because I had simply had enough. I was put on antidepressants when child 2 was approximately 2 months old but they did not do a lot.
Once child 2 had had his hernia done he was a lot better and was feeding a lot better. Child 1 and 2 had to have treatment on their eyes after their cataract operations. This treatment comprised of contact lenses and eye drops. When cild 2 was about 6 months old it was found that he had contracted Glaucoma through having his cataracts removed. I was back at square 1 with child 2 constantly screaming because his contact lenses were uncomfortable and were hurting him. My own emotional health was a mess, I had no energy and my self esteem and confidence were on the floor. I suffered terrible headaches, I could barely go out of the house at 1 stage and was convinced that every 1 was out to attack me not physically but more on an emotional level saying that i was unable to cope with my children. I was victimised not helped I was accused of this that and the other. Everytime child 1 or 2 got a bruise i was accused of inflicting it when I had done absolutely nothing. They had obtained bruises in the normal way that children get bruised i.e climbing and falling off the furniture that they had climbed on, tripping over things, etc. My children often got bruised because they would misjudge things due to their site impairment. I was once accused of inflicting a bruise to child 1's head when I didn't child 1 told me, my husband and mother that he had obtained the bruise at nursery school! By this time child 1 was 3 years old.
