Nothing much a few Internet volunteers can do to help with such a serious matter except recommend you hire an attorney.

We discuss legal matters.
None of us will become directly involved in litigation.

You can be your own attorney.

You can appear at every hearing and voice your disagreement with your child's adoption.

It may not work, but you'll have tried.

Sorry, but I hope things come around for you.

I can, but won't.

We don't offer legal advice, or provide legal instruction.

Forms include instruction.
Read the courts website, obtain the forms, file the forms.
Or, see if local legal aid can advise you about the forms.

Good luck.
