1Opinion of the CourtPetrie, J.
— The natural mother of two minor children, Linda Sue Hagen, appeals from an order permanently depriving her of the care, custody and control of those children and committing them into the permanent custody of the Department of Social and Health Services for the purpose of adoption. Mrs. Hagen contends that the trial court abused its discretion by "cutting off" her testimony during the first hearing on this matter; she further argues that the evidence adduced at trial was not sufficient to support the deprivation order. We agree with both claims and reverse.
