With a modification of the order, approved by the court.

Wait two years and modify. An incorrect amount is interpretive, as sole custody father are still ordered to pay child support.
No he cant
No, because it is considered bribing, and even if you could, I doubt a parent would give up a child for money if they are suing or have custody in the first place. If you want said child, you can sue for custody of the child. If you cannot gain custody, then the next best thing to do is sue for visitation.It's not legal to pay a parent to relinquish custody of a child in any state! But if the parent in question has a child support award, he or she will be free of paying child support or being in any way responsible for the child from that day forward.
Yes, but he could file for custody. Not tomorrow, nor next week. Take a month and prepare. see links below.
You don't get automatic custody after a test, you get rights to the child. You have to go to court and get custody orders. Go to your courthouse, to the family court section, get a list of lawyers you can call and papers to file for custody. Next, child support will probably come up. So get ready for a battle.
In the state of mi me and my ex had joint physical and joint legal he had her one week i had her the next. I had to pay child support because i made more money then the ex.
If she has lost her income due to illness, then the circumstances have changed. Hopefully you have enough income to support the child in the meantime. If the breast cancer is real, then you should have some compassion for the next few years as she gets past the surgery/chemo and recovers.
First, he has NO ASSUMED RIGHTS to the child, so the first move needs to establishing a voluntary child support order, but not before a paternity test is done. Once an order is in place, it cannot be easily stopped even if not the father. Next, you prepared as if you were going for full custody. Finally, consider Bird Nest Custody. see links.
Yes, but the answer depends on the details. Perhaps the father didn't know of the child. If the mother has been found unfit the father is next in line as long as he is suitable. If the father has matured and wants to be part of the child's life after not being around at first, the court may award joint custody or at least a visitation schedule and child support order. You should visit the court and ask to speak with an advocate, or consult with an attorney who specializes in custody issues.
If you made the baby, then you had better get a job and provide what you can. This is true for at least the next eighteen years.
Absolutely!!! If you can prove that in fact the child was abandoned, you have every right to get custody. Get the child and go to court the next day and don't leave until you have the order in your hands.
Yes, unless the living parent has a court order not allowing them to be with the child in that case the child would go to the next relative that is willing to take the child. The surviving parent will still have to go to court to have the custody awarded to him/her. After all, the court felt there was a good reason that the full custody award was rendered in the first place.
