Being a "bitch" paid off!

So I wanted to give you an update.    You can laugh ...with excitment.

As you know a week (or two) ago I talked about how the system fails our children and hoq the child support office has been screwing up and how Victor seems to think he can get away with alot of stuff. right? lol

So yesterday, we were preparing Tim for the ambulance to come to take him to the ER. He was having chest pains and all.  I had not gone to my puter to see the email from Dr. Harmon so I didn't see her email about bringing him into the clinic instead of the ER.  I missed it...my fault, Ok?! I'll admit to that.  But because I had not heard from her (my assumption), I called 911 to send Tim to the ER.  Ok..he is ok. it was just cuz he had not pooped for several days so all the air and gases was what gave him chest pains (or what seeem like chest pains).  We did get home around midnight.  Long story to boring just say it took them over 5 hours to write out the discharge papers.   Yes!!  Anyhow...

Anyhow...so while getting him ready I get a call from the Asst. Director of the Montgomery County Child Support.  Debbie Hines.  She got my fax. She got my certified mail with Tim's picture in it.  She told she was really upset how her staff has been and she was moved by the photo. She also told me that the reason they needed us to re-do the General Testimony was because the Attorney 's office LOST the paper work. I told her we were told that you all were updating the files every six (6) months and we couldnt understand since it had only been 2 months since we sent the stuff.  This time my Florida Caseworker sent it by certified mail. 

I also told her that I sent a letter to the Governor of Maryland, to the Child Support Administration offfice, the senator of that country, etc..etc... she assured me they were going to do something including serve and subponea Victor  and she even looked up his income and couldn't believe how much money he was making.

I told her that nothing had changed other than that now Tim is now on a Trach and Ventilator and we sent documents to prove this.   She said she was moved about the photo.  I also reminded her that photo was to remind them whom they represent.  NOT Victor but Timothy. She agreed but was upset when I told her that one of  her staff told me that they were there for the father and not the children. Debbie told me, "no, that is not true" they are always there for the children, not the father as that is what "child support" is really about. 

She called me back later and left a message and told me that the Attorneys did get the paper work for sure and that they were working on it.  

I did make it clear to them that I will file a law suit if the child support didn't start in January. 

I also told her that they will need to "force" Victor to surrender his paper work because he was not willing to volunteer it and he will ignore their request.  She understood.  

Then this morning (early) i get a call from Victor (responding to my email) that he will take care of Tim's medication co-pays, and not to worry about it.  That is great but Victor, he still needs money in his account none of his checks won't bounce since his bills are more than his income. He never responded to that so I need to remind him...again!!  

Debbie also understand what I told her about how Victor doesn't want to pay child support because he no longer is a child. Well we all know that.  But per Debbie it is considered "Adult child support" due to his disability and Vic needs to understand this.    She also asked  me about the Special Needs Trust accont and I explained to her that account will prevent Tim from loosing his SSI/Medicaid since it is allowed.   

So...maybe being a "bitch" paid off with all those letters!!!   Let's see how fast they put this all in place now to make it word for Timothy. 

So I'm thrilled but still don't have all my hopes up.  Know what I mean.

So despite Tim being in the ER...I still had a good day!
