My name is Alexander Harrison and I am the Uncle and pre-adoptive parent for JW (1 year old). He has been in my care from 12/31/2018 (9 months old) until 10/25/2019 (18 months old). While I was at work, JW had an accident in the home that sent him to the hospital. My wife, Anita, took her eyes off of JW for a minute while attending to another pre-school age foster kid who was in our home. JW ended up toddling into the master bathroom, climbing on the toilet, then into the sink right next to the toilet where he ended up turning on the hot water and scalding himself.

Children, Youth and Families Department (CYFD) chose to remove JW, our relative, from our home because of this tragic accident.

JW's biological parents signed away their parental rights so we could adopt him. They knew JW would have better opportunities in life in my care, and they knew they would still be able to be a part of his life once the adoption went through.

At this point, some immediate family members, relatives, and important people in JW's life has not been able to see him in over 140 days. My wife and I were only able to see JW once in a supervised visit on 12/03/2019. We have not seen him in over 90 days now.
