Separation!!

 Daddy's Gone

    

    I need to move things back a bit.  When the problems got really bad between T and C, and T couldn't take it anymore, he left and left the boys with C.  He would never tell us where he was, but we had our suspicions.  C believed he was with her cousin L, which he adamantly denied.  At that point, C moved in with her mother and father - Nana B and Papa B.  Kevin desperately wanted to be with his father, but T was trying to get away from C.  

    Things with C were bad.  She never cleaned, the house was destroyed, the boys walked around in diapers that were so soiled they literally hung down so low they would almost fall off from the weight of the excrement in them.  The bottles would be so old they would be moldy or soured.  Nana B was just as bad as C.  She never really had any desire to do anything, other than sit and watch tv.

    Papa B eventually became sick with cancer.  He got what treatment he could, and one day they called my mother and said he was really sick and they needed her to come over.  When mom got there, it was readily apparent that Papa B was actively dying. He was laying on the water bed and had blood coming from his mouth.  While my mother and father tried to get him on the floor so they could do CPR - I told C and Nana B to take the boys into a separate bedroom so they didn't see their Papa dying.  My mother did CPR while we waited for the EMTs.  I turned around as the were using the defibrillator just in time to see C allowing the boys to see this.  They were approximately 3 and 2 years old.

    Soon after this happened, Nana B and C were trying to find boyfriends on the internet.  We were told by the boys that they saw Nana B standing in front of a webcam naked and they saw her "toys".

    The boys were treated like wild animals.
