Grandma vs. Mom: Give Me Back My Daughter (19x58)

:

Gabe admits, due to an addiction to drugs, she hasn’t always made the best choices. She says she used heroin during her pregnancy, which resulted in her daughter, Avery, being born seven weeks premature and needing oxygen for two days to survive. Her mother, Becky, says Gabe’s addiction forced her to take guardianship of her granddaughter. Now, Gabe claims she is nearly one year clean and sober and wants her daughter returned to her care immediately. But Becky claims not only does Gabe lack motherly instincts, but she can’t trust her daughter to care for Avery and is not willing to give up guardianship anytime soon.
