Visiting Issues

Does anyone have suggestions for submitting an appeal for my son's daughter to be allowed to visit him.  She aws initially approved only to be told after she had visited 6 or 7 times that she had been approved by mistake.  This is ridiculous however part of his sentence was a no contact with minors clause - I wrote a letter to the DOC and received a response stating basically "Sorry - we are not changing our mind"  She is 9 years old and if this stands she will not be able to visit until the age of 18 - by then the connection with her Daddy will be lost as much as we can say phone calls and video visits will help it is not the same.  She is absolutely heartbroken and so is my son.  She and I (his Mom) are the only two visitors he has and to take that away is cruel in my opinion.  I will engage the legal help I can get through my Employee Assistance program at work but am not feeling very hopeful - in fact it is very very sad!!

  • I'm praying for you and your son.
  • Barbara, you’re in the right directions. Oftentimes it’s humanly okay to say “how would you have feel if it was for your loved ones? Keep up the fight for the 3 of you. Remember that a winner never quit. Love and prayers
  • Thank you for your kindness!!

  • Don't get discouraged, keep fighting. I will pray that you can get legal help, and appeal it.
