taking his calls

some days, taking his calls are just too emotional.  I have to remember where we are in life. I have to remember what my son is facing each day.  I have to remember how his and our lives got out of control.  some days are just hard!

  • Absolutely Mary..... their story to tell!! My son’s story was on the front page of our fairly small town... :’(
  • Lynn... bless your heart! no one has no idea how difficult this is.  regardless of the charges whenever I see a crime on tv now, I always think about that person's mother who will have to endure such a painful time.  last night I got caught up in the thoughts of the days before my 19 year old son went into prison.  The fear he must have felt, the absolute dread and deep feeling of loneliness he must have been facing.  This is hell, it is just hell.  And good stuff Mary! thank you for the support.  I just wish anyone in my life could understand.  I am so tired of people asking me how my son is... MY SON IS IN PRISON! HE IS JUST SURVIVING!!!! Lord help us survive this.  

  • Wow, I to have them days, my phone rings I look see who it is? Sometimes I just can’t press the green button, I have to tell my self answer it Lynn , becuz u never know what could happen? I often think back my son has been locked up little over 5 years now, if I woulda known 5 years ago would be our last Christmas together, or birthday? I feel so alone and lost at times, but he tells me that he needs to talk to me, I keep him calm and when he doesn’t talk to me cuz he gets up on his feelings, he’s moody then he worries about me, wonders that something is wrong? I’m gonna go one baby step at a time and just keep praying. I feel angry at him, he’s suppose to take care of me when I get old not me take care of him, I’m mad at him for leaving not being here. You see my son received a life sentence with no possibility of parole. Some days are better than others, thanks for letting me share and not feel bad about myself cuz I just can’t talk to him at the moment, thank you
  • some days I don't even have words for him! He doesn't want to really hear about things we are doing or what is happening out here.  what do you talk about with your child in prison?

  • I am glad to know I am not the only one to feel this way. Especially when he is facing things that I have no control over and can only ask God to help with.

  • Yes. But with Gods help we get through. Take care and feel the understanding we have for you.
