I wanted to know if I were waisting time and money on Modifying my DC. I wanted to ask the judge if the decree could be changed from Dallas County to Dallas County and surrounding cities. I have now turned down 3 job offers because the commute was way to far. There was no particular reason why the judge ordered this. I was told by my attys at the time that he "orders Dallas County Only" with everyone.

I also wanted to ask the judge if could have equal time in the month of July (summer visitation) to see our daughter. She is barely 3 and being away from her for a recovering from a month is hard enough but he will not let me talk to her most of the times he has her. (

it's ordered on the decree that I can speak to her everyday). And when I do talk to her she seems so sad and asks when can she come back to my house. She is either taking nap, or he didn't have the phone on him or she just went to bed the other times I try to talk

... I was in the hospital while she was an infant recovering from stroke eclampsia...it's as though I never will fully bond with her. So sad here alone and depressed. I miss her so... Has anyone out there gone through something similar? Any thoughts?

I couldn't read and not reply but I have no experience with this. I hope some of the others here will.

Could you by chance get someone (therapist, doctor?) to write a letter saying it's in her best interest to have equal time?

And what does DC mean? Sorry, I'm not totally up on all those. :) Does it mean where you have to live, like you can't live anywhere that's not in Dallas county? Have you talked to your attorneys about these questions you have?

Btw, when I read that every time she talks to you she asks to come home, I thought that it sounded like you two were very close, so I was rather surprised to see that you don't feel that you two have bonded. Obviously I don't know you two, but it sounds like maybe you're bonded more than you realize.

Best of luck, mama.
