HELP IN CANADA PLEASE.

This is for anyone who is willing to read it!      PLEASE HELP!
     I have a five year old daughter, and now a three week old son, and I find myself caught in a battle with the MCFD once again, and just before Christmas! They have apprehended my baby boy, and are applying for a 45 day interim custody order. I have not signed, my lawyer says I have a case and should take it to a hearing, but that takes time. Time that I don't have! While I wait, my son is still in the hospital, not for any medical reasons at all, but because the MCFD and my social worker, Shannon Fitzsimmons with the Burnaby office, are saying that he can't live at home with me right now because they feel that I am unfit to care for him! My daughter is still in my care legally, but she is staying with my Aunt & their family right now, and even though the Ministry has said that they are not going to apply for any legal order, they want her to stay with my family for an undetermined  length of time. Can they realy do that? I am still her legal guardian, and yet they are telling me that I can not bring her home with me where she belongs! And this is all because of a phone call that they received back in or around July, which was made by a known criminal and drug-addict that was black-mailing me! He was threatening me, not only by saying he would call the ministry, but also by threatening both my physical safety as well as my home. He was the landlord of the building I was living in at the time, though he has since been fired and evicted as well for his drug use and for breaking into various tennants suites and stealing a number of their belongings. The reason he was threatening me was because I am a single parent and therefore I am more vulnerable and most likely to cooperate with whatever he wanted, and he was demanding money from me for his drug habbit. I have been too scared to come forward until now, because even though I moved out of that building months ago, he has found my new place and has since come here a number of times and continued to threaten both my safety and the safety of my daughter as well as my then unborn baby. I have had nowhere to turn that I felt safe, so I just tried to give him whatever he demanded. Until now. His phone call and false accusations, which are absolutely horrific, have now led the ministry to believe that I am unable to care for my children, because they have concerns of neglect and they don't think I feed my daughter. My daughter is very well-fed, not to mention loved to the end of the earth! My babies should be at home with me! Not in the hospital and/or with relatives, though that is much better than having them stuck in foster care. But no matter how safe she is there, it's not her home! Her home is with me, I am her Mother! I can not stay silent any longer, my Christmas has been completely destroyed, I've had my entire life torn away from me, and my 5 year old is most likely going to be traumatized for life! It breaks my heart, every time I see her and everyday when I call her, she cries and tells me how she misses me so much! She tries so hard to be brave, but I see her just break down and bawl her eyes out, telling me she wants to come home, and how much she loves me, and how much she misses me. And I try so hard not to cry in front of her, but how can I not? It is the most terribly painful heartache you can imagine, and you can only understand this if you are a mother as well. So I will not stay silent any longer, I have no choice but to risk my own safety and stand up to the evil son-of-a-bitch that has ruined my life with his multiple phone calls and threats, and his name is Kelly Dorschied. He has many involvements with the police, and is very well known amongst them and the legal system. When it comes to my babies, there is no risk too great for them. I just want them home, and I need something to be done immediately, before Christmas! I can't wait for the courts to figure everything out, I need them! And even more important, THEY NEED ME! So please, if there is anyone out there who is reading this, please help me! Whether that means just forwarding this on to everyone you know, or if you have any ideas or suggestions for me, I would love to get any feedback possible! PLEASE HELP MY FAMILY! You can email me at ultimatehockeygirl@hotmail.com or you can even phone me at 778-885-4634, and my name is Jacinda. Please, whatever you can do to help me will be so very much appreciated, and I am so grateful to you for even just taking the time to read my story. If you know of anyone that cares about children, families, and doing the right thing, please pass this on to them as well. Thank you so much, and I wish everyone a Merry Christmas, even if I don't get my Christmas Wish this year.
