Hey there, I'm sorry. This sounds really rough, and I haven't been through anything like you have. I do know sh*t really happens to people, to you, your daughter, your son.
Could you find an advocate in a larger city? Through a women's program, maybe pro bono.
You need help. To get through the sea of papers, for counseling and therapy, for going to court, to helping you decide what you want to do to move forward--.
If you decide you want your son back, I might be naive, but unless you signed some adoption papers, I think you could reunite with him. I'm sorry I don't know.
I imagine you'll need to steel yourself to face down lots of assumptions people have made about you w/o even knowing you. That takes support of variuos kinds. I know you can find it. It might be a rough ride, but you've been through hell once and survived. You can do it if you keep your wits and lfind real alliances.
Welcome to babble. God bless you and keep writing.
