I really need Dr. Phil's intervention!
I've got one for the record books.
My name is kenagain2@yahoo.com. I am a Desert Storm Veteran. I was medically discharged from the Army in 1995. I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease while on active duty. I currently have a V.A. disability rating of 100% and have been receiving Social Security disability benefits since retiring in 1995. I divorced my wife in 1999. We have one daughter, (daughter's name). She was born (DOB). The divorce was finalized in XXX County, GA. The settlement agreement mandated joint, split custody of my daughter (6 months with me as primary custodial parent and 6 months with ex-wife as custodial parent). There was to be no child support paid to/by either party by/to the other. The one stipulation that I conceded was to allow, (Daughter's name), to be moved to YYY County, TX, (My ex-wife and daughter have lived with my ex-wife's parents since 1999). YYY County, TX, was then to have jurisdiction over any future disputes.
My intention was to move from Georgia to Texas shortly after the divorce to co-raise my daughter. I was not able to do so because of treatment complications of my Parkinson's disease plus other maladies. My ex-wife took full advantage of my condition and would not let me speak to my daughter on the phone. I hired an attorney to write letters to her but, to no avail.
My disability worsened. I had several hospitalizations, surgeries and long periods of recoveries. Further attempts to contact my daughter were blocked.
In 2002, my ex-wife, (name of ex-wife), filed some sort of civil action, "a modification parent/child relationship". This was done without my knowledge or consent. The action was filed in the YYY County, Texas, District Court, cause no. ABC. It was filed on 2/20/2002 with final judgment on 9/20/2002. I have no idea what the action means nor do I know on what grounds the action was granted. I have tried to contact the attorney that supposedly represented me, (ad-litem). He has refused to speak to me after numerous phone calls, made by me, to his office. His name is Lawyer Shark.
My physical condition has dramatically improved allowing me to attempt to regain my daughter. In October 2006, I went to YYY, TX, with the intention of visiting my daughter to "reconnect" with her. I called my ex-wife before I attempted to "just show up". It was my desire not to traumatize my daughter. My ex-wife informed me, during that phone call, my parental rights had been invalidated/terminated. She changed my daughter's name to (different daughter's name). She also told me if I attempted to contact my daughter, she would have me arrested. My ex-wife also made the statement, "If I came to YYY,TX, she would run away and hide my daughter". My ex-wife's mother got on the phone and threatened, "I would be sorry if I came to YYY, TX".
My ex-wife said that she and the Court could not "find" me to properly serve me legal papers back in 2002. She also told me "She KNEW I was on the F.B.I.'s Ten Most Wanted List". However, my ex-wife has been receiving child support checks from me, (via my SSA disability, I have plenty of proof) since 1999 through the present! The Social Security Administration always had my current addresses. If the Court was made aware of my financial assistance, (for which I was NOT obligated to supply to my ex-wife, but I did so anyway), wouldn't they have been able to contact me or "find me" through the Social Security Administration or the Veteran's Administration or even the Red Cross?!
The entire situation stinks. It is extremely unfair and has cheated me out of very precious years with my daughter. I have done nothing wrong. My disability was exploited and I was taken advantage of. In my opinion, there had to be fraud involved. It is my desire to regain my custodial rights and bring to bear the full force of the law against my ex-wife.
My ex-wife claims the court has sealed the case, therefore, she cannot discuss the details or reasons of the court's termination of my parental rights with me. It has just been brought to my attention, however, that she has told many other people, including my current wife, my two grown sons and other relatives that I sexually abused my daughter when she was 5 & 6 years old. My ex-wife professes to have irrefutable proof but won't present any. I stand ready to take a polygraph while on sodium pentothal, followed by an interrogation by "Jack Bauer" to prove there was NEVER any sexual abuse, whatsoever. My ex-wife and her mother have been brainwashing my daughter for years. She revealed to my current wife that "I (Me) can't remember because I would always overdose myself on anti-parkinson's medications." My ex-wife claims my daughter can't remember or recall any specifics. However, my ex-wife continually tells my daughter, "You know your Father used to do terrible things to you!".
I have just finished saving the money to go to YYY,TX, hire an attorney and start to put the pieces back together. I will start my "legal assault" by June 15, 2007. I'm not asking for money for legal assistance or anything else. I am looking for assistance to help me repair my relationship with my daughter. I love her very much and her wellbeing is my top priority. She is 13 years old and at a critical crossroad in her young life. I am told she constantly asks about me. I am also told she doesn't want to have anything to do with me either. I also want to expose my ex-wife and her mother for the maladjusted duo that they are and show how their lies, gossip and manipulation have destroyed several relationships of mine in domino fashion. I also want to show that they will be held accountable for making false, outrageous statements and slanderous allegations.
ADDING ONE MORE TWIST:
My ex-wife telephoned me last week, May 25, 2007, claiming she wanted to have me re-establish a relationship with my daughter including visitation!? However, she hasn't let me speak to my daughter yet. Is it just me who thinks this tops the Bizarre Chart? If it were me on the other side, I wouldn't let someone whom I believed to be a child molester within six States of my child.
I had to "bite my lip" to keep from telling her about the legal storm that is about to rain down on her.
There is plenty to add to the story. This gives you the general idea. I am an open book. I will submit, unconditionally, to any form of polygraph and/or truth verifying test to back up ANY statement I have made or will make! Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated. I am desperate for your help, Dr. Phil.
Sincerely,

(Original Air Date: 11/17/06) It's often said that parents find true happiness when their child finds true love. But what happens when a mother suspects that her child may be sleeping with the enemy? Gerri fears that her son-in-law, Alan, is such a danger to her daughter, Melissa, and her grandchildren, that he may kill them. She claims Alan is molesting his 3-year-old daughter, and that Melissa is in denial. Gerri says she had no choice but to call Family Services. Alan and Melissa are outraged by the accusations and say Gerri is out to destroy their marriage. Alan maintains his innocence, and Melissa stands by his side. Could Gerri's guilt as a parent be causing her to make these serious allegations? Alan takes a grueling three-hour lie detector test to prove his innocence. Who will be the one apologizing when Dr. Phil reveals the results? Is Alan a monster or the victim of a malicious mother-in-law? Share your thoughts, join the discussion.
