From what you're saying, your wife isn't presently, and shouldn't be, in a position of care for your child. Your case will depend on the brainpower and commonsense of the authorities who hear that case. Because your child's health, wellbeing and future depend on the outcome you might need to take good legal advice and maybe retain good legal representation. This costs money, but a child's future is at stake. Depending on where you live you might be eligible for government assistance in stating your case. Maintain and keep as much documentation as possible; this not only assists your case but shows you are a responsible and caring parent. Of course, your wife's own case will be taken into consideration when custody is determined. Good luck to your child.

Is suicide or attempted suicide against the law in Michigan?
It isn't against the law, no... laws against suicide are rare, because it is impossible to enforce a punishment for someone that is dead. However, it does invalidate almost all insurance policies, making it a significant financial burden to whoever has to bear the cost of clean up and burial. Suicide is a poor choice for a lot of reasons, many of which have to do with the suffering it causes others, but it is also sacrificing hope and potential. Despair is temporary. Suicide is not. Life gets better, and suicide is, as they say, a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Actually, really not a solution at all. Just another escape. It's harder to solve the problem that is motivating the suicide, but solving the problem is always a better choice, and more than worth it, even if it takes a lot of time, suffering, or embarrassment. Life is worth the sacrifice.
