boyfriend walked out on me while i was in labor

My boyfriend (and father of my child) walked out on me while I was in labor and disappeared for two days. He took my car which was packed with Hospital needs and my money and was my transportation to the Hospital. He told me he would be back and every time I called he would say \'I\'m almost there\' or \'I\'m parking the car\' etc. until finally (10 hours after leading me on as my need to get to the hospital became more and more severe) he stopped answering the phone. Eventually, because of this, I broke up with him. I was in labor for approximately 50 hours and he left me around hour 36, so - Long story short - he ended up disappearing to live with his family in Florida (without telling me) 6 months ago - He hasn\'t paid Child Support. I\'m moving forward with the initial steps to collect Child Support and plan to then go after back owed Child Support - I am wondering, based on the emotional trauma, etc. caused by him abandoning me while in labor - is there a case? I\'m mostly curious and would consider pursuing if I had more information? I should also mention that his parents were living with us at the time and during those 10 hours of labor I was on my own because they were in their bedroom sleeping. His mother finally woke up, I had to borrow money from her to take a cab, she walked me to the door as I walked to the cab up the street stooped over in pain - yes - that's right, she not only did not escort me to the cab, she did not come to the hospital with me either. Thank you.

ok first i thought i was the only wman left in labor. 2nd you are a strong woman like myself. it takes couarge to go through what we endured. i was with my daughters father for 8 yrs living in his home. he left me in labor. my daughter was in the nicu for 5 days i was in my room and went to the nicu every two hrs to breast feed her. long story short he NEVER came back to the hospital not to see her not even once while she was in incubator! he had locks on the front gate when i was released from the hospital. as for your court case emotional abuse, i feel as for me the staff made notes of his unstability and that holds weight in court. also while in labor when he left me my father was fighting a battle with brain cancer. this exp has made me stronger woman. pls let me know what happens the007girl30@yahoo.com
