Serious problem: I am sorry your child was injured, and hope that s/he is okay. Determining how and why this happened is important -- and cps is concerned enough to remove your child from the care of you and your fiance's mother both. Physicians will need to investigate these concerns. I'm sure you want your child to have best chance of recovery and ongoing development possible, and will work with them.
