Foster Mother Arranges Early Santa Visit for Her Foster Child
In Bessemer Alabama a foster mother plans an early Christmas for four year old Jewell Viree Edwards while awaiting a state court decision. The Alabama supreme court refused to alter an order returning the child to her biological mother Viola Edwards. Mrs Sessions, who had faced a sensational custody case last year in which the father Leamon Edwards was accused of selling the child for 500 dollars, is arranging Santa visits and decorations ahead of potential formal papers. The family braces for possible loss of custody as Christmas approaches.
