Mother Seeking Justice
Is Sky's mom's mental issues verified by something or someone other than what the father says?
I am sure we will find other articles that state it more clearly, but there are supporting documents outside of SM's declaration.
A doctor, however, testified that she was still able to care for her children.
This is referenced elsewhere as, my paraphrasing close to the actual quote, that Julia's severe OCD does not interfere with her caring for the kids".

ETA: Here is another reference. This media outlet has clearly seen Julia's declarations and other court documents as well because they are quoted.
Earlier this year a social worker reported that a doctor found her to be in good mental health and an appropriate caregiver for the children.
One psychologist who evaluated Biryukova wrote in July 2010 that though she was dealing with "a severe form of obsessive compulsive disorder, I do not believe that interferes with her ability to be a compassionate, effective parent to her children."
