Get an attorney. If the courts have granted you the restraining order from your MIL and stated the claims to CPS as unfounded and without merit, they cannot do that to you. This is another thing they will continue to do until they have successfully removed your children from you without cause... all the while leaving emaciated, malnourished children with their abusivr parents... smh... good luck to you... also, since you have documentsfrom court, file a complaint with the state against them. 
I don't think there is much you can do at this point. It was court orders, and you didn't take that to heart, so now they can do as they please... Be honest, even if you teach your child what to do in the event of an emergency, being in the real live emergency isn't the same as when you are teaching them, they are young and could panic so easily...
they are concerned about the well being of your kids, and you should be as well. bynot following the orders, you show a lack of true concern for your kids...
Wishing you all the best.
Quoting MommyJDTJ:not sure on advice but good luck
If you aren't supposed to be with them alone, they will slam you on that even if a few minutes, because it only takes a few minutes to have something go wrong. Why did she need to help with her children. By the judges order you have to stick to the plan exactly. The worker has no power over that, it is part of the court ordered child supervision thing. I feel for you, I really do, but they don't want your child having that option apparently. I don't know if you can fight it, since you knew it was the mandate. AGain I feel for the place you are in, but by her leaving to check on her kids it put you between a rock and a hard place. Hugs and good luck. the reason I say this is I used to work in the field. And while as a worker I understood, I had by law to report it. And even if I thought the kids were okay, it would not look good for the parent. By conscience and law I could not falsify the report when I checked on the children.
Again I feel for you situation, and good luck.

Have you looked into a service dog for seizures? They can alert you if you are about to have one so that you can ensure that you are as safe as possible and you can alert the children as well.
I understand why they are concerned about the kids, but there are plenty of people who have medical conditions and are allowed to care for their children on their own. Six is plenty old enough to know their own address and how to call 911 in an emergency. They are also old enough to provide basic care (VERY basic care, like getting a snack for example) to themselves and a slightly younger sibling (one that is mobile and verbal) for the few minutes it may take for an ambulance to arrive. It might help to have an emergency plan (in pictures as well as words) hung in an obvious location so that if you do have one your oldest can follow the instructions, which will help reduce panic.
If it isn't court ordered that you have someone with you at all times, then you need to show that to them. They are pushy, so push a little bit back. You are meeting the children's basic needs (and I'm sure more than that as well), and as long as there isn't a safety risk to them if you do have a seizure then you need to make it clear to CPS that you will not allow them to walk all over you demanding things that aren't even in a court order. Find a lawyer if you don't already have one... they might be able to help you get something in writing saying you do not require constant assistance, which might help get them off your case.
Feeling really overwhelmed and down. Have any posts or pics to make me smile?
How old?
