I never "lost" custody. I signed over residential custody voluntarily. In Metro-Davidson County, they can't take your children away for marijuana use, but it did hurt my case.
He walked into a courtroom, and with nothing but his word, he got a restraining order against me by saying I was a drug dealer. I actually cleaned out my system for 6 weeks so I could pass a drug test, and when I got there, the lady had me pee, but when I came out of the bathroom, she said "Oh shit! I was supposed to supervise that.".
I told her I didn't have anymore pee left, so she made me drink a bunch of water. I knew I had 5 weeks until the next court date, and I was stressed to the max. I peed again, finally, and then I left and smoked one joint. 5 weeks later, I went back to court, and the judge said my test came back diluted. I was SO PISSED. I tried to explain, but he wasn't hearing it. He made me go back and take another one, and I wasn't sweating it because I just smoked the one joint 5 weeks earlier, but it came back positive. What a bitch, right!
I wouldn't bring up that he was my drug dealer in court because I lack the evidence to prove it. I feel like what I have in evidence is plenty, and there's no way my daughter would be given to the state. I've got a clean criminal record, my son is an honor roll student with perfect attendance, I live in a nice home, make good money, I don't drink, I can pass a drug test now (because I have my dilution, B2, creatine, aspirin method down to a science), and 27 witness ready to testify I am an excellent mom... one of them being a Metro City Councilman.
He's not even bringing up drugs this time, because he's so whacked out on pharmaceutical heroine that he can't stop for 3 days to pass a drug test. I can't prove that at the moment either, but I have it on good authority, and I believe it because he was on them when we dated. If he's not going to bring up drugs, neither am I, and he had a chance to do so the other day, so I think I'm safe for now.
The only way they would put her in state's custody is if both of us are proven to be unfit, and that's not going to happen. A drug test from over a year ago won't do that. I'm pretty confident the guardian ad litem is going to work quickly to get her out of there and to me, as soon as she's up to date on all the evidence.
I hope, at least.
