I am the grandmother of a 25-year-old young lady with two precious children. We raised her because her mother was not mentally stable – drugs and bipolar. Her mother was neglectful and put her daughter in harm’s way being hostile and mean spirited. Her daughter is aware of all of this and at one time was at Child Haven until we were able to get her through the Las Vegas Family Court. She occasionally talks with her mother, but there is no relationship and she is always upset after each call.
