I need more facts please. When your wife divorced you did you get visitation? And if so why have you visited? Who is this woman? Is she a family member? Where is your ex-wife? Is there a reason your wife hid from you? Was there any physical abuse or substance abuse going in with you? Do you have a criminal record?
Let me summarize what I understand...Your wife (at the time) took off with your children and hid from you. Thereafter, your wife divorced you (did you contact you regarding the divorce) and she eventually left the children with some woman and she has been there for four years. Your son died while in her care. Did you know that he passed? Did you go to the funeral? Moreover, she does not have any custody rights, but will not let you see your own daughter.
