Logistically, a complete nightmare - the custody battle was in Georgia, she and the kids lived in Arizona, and the dad was going to have them live in California (which meant she wasn't going to be able to be in their lives anymore / but neither adult made it easy for the kids?). She was unemployed (but still fought for them in a multi-state custody battle), he didn't see them for at least a year (and more likely longer), the boy was on the autistic spectrum, and she was trying to kill herself.
Poor kids.
