DeSoto woman seeks to reunite with foster children after sinkhole discovery

Dorothy Chatmon, a foster parent in DeSoto, Texas, lost her foster children after a sinkhole was discovered in her backyard. The sinkhole, which she noticed over the past four years, has caused significant damage to her property. Chatmon has lived in her home for over 15 years. She learned that an old covered pool was contributing to the sinkhole's formation. The City of DeSoto informed her that repairing the issue would be her responsibility. In response, Chatmon's family, friends, and church community are helping her hire a contractor to fix the sinkhole. She hopes to reunite with her foster children once the repairs are completed.
