Bubby,
Please edit your post.
It freaked me out reading the first line of the first sentence.
My prayers are with Ben and his daughter.
Thanks for the post Bub. Perhaps a call of support won't hurt??
Let me know if that would be wise.

He has no Paypal account, but I am working with him to wire something thru Moneygram to the nearest Walmart to help out. Got no great love for MalWart, but I do have some love for a brother.

Wish I was close enough to lend a spare bed or something, but I'm a bit out of the way. Keep us posted of anything else needed though.

Good evening all!

THANK YOU all for your prayers and support! It is an amazing feeling to have such a family as this.

My wife does not like me to share a lot but - a little background.

My daughter has two wonderful boys, Byron is 4 and Carsyn just turned 2.

She sent them to Iowa with the biological contributor for the summer. About three weeks in he calls her up and says that he can't do it and he needs her to come get them. So she freaks out and starts in panic mode then calms down and takes a week to get things going. We dropped her off at the airport in Sacramento on Saturday the 25th and she flew to my sisters house in denver. My sister loaned her a car and she headed to Des Moines. She arrived at around 5 am and loaded up the kids and headed back north to return the car and catch a train home. She was 10 miles out after she picked up the kids and she fell asleep at the wheel, over corrected and rolled the car two and a half  times! The responding officer told her that she stopped shprt of going off a bridge!

Someone indeed was watching over her and her boys.

My dad and I are driving to Iowa so we can bring them all home. We are currently in Rock Springs, Wyoming and will head out again in the am after some much needed rest. Zuma and JW - I am so grateful for your offers and I will keep you posetd as we progress. We are hoping to be in Des Moines by tomorrow evening. Once I know more I will call or text each of you. the boys father's family is of no help either emotionally or financially so we are hoping to deal with them as little as is possible.

Again - THANK ALL OF YOU! I really appreciate the support!
