In the blink of an eye my child was taken from me. Her father had his no-care-in-the-world face on but deep down he was hurting. He let his girlfriend take his attention away which led to the situation.  I cried for hours. That promise I made has been broken. How you may ask? I will tell you.

My name is Giselle Ameena Wright and have been fighting for my daughter for 4 years...
