I don't know what made me look but I checked out the court's website and as of yesterday there is a court date set for a sentencing hearing. April 8th. I am freaking out, I don't know whether to be glad that it is almost over or scared. I don't even know whether I should go to it or not. I need some support and hugs before I lose my mind.

Sending huge hugs and happy thoughts your way! ((((((((((((((Aggie)))))))))))))) I don't think you need to be there, it may only cause you more unnecessary hurt. Just remember that the jackass is getting what he deserves.

Deep Breath. ((((Aggie)))) Soon you will be free, and he will be history. Keep looking on the positives so that you can keep walking forward! Big healing hugs, Kimmee

Aggie,

I just read your profile. OMG! You are justifiably freaked out. IMO, you should go to court as a way to give yourself closure. Bring a friend who can drive you there and home just in case you are too emotional to get home by yourself. What he did was wrong in so many ways, and you DESERVE better than that piece of trash.

(((((((((HUG))))))))))

Thanks everyone, I know he is getting what he deserves but damn it still hurts that all of this has happened. I am trying to look at positives right now and mainly just taking deep breaths.

My sister just told me today that she intends to go to the sentencing, my niece also said that she wanted to go but then said she might change her mind . . . and then there is me who is still clueless. *sigh*

Angie - I would go. When the drunk driver who hit me was sentenced - I was there front and center. ai think it was important so that the court was not acting in a void. Do what feels right for you.

Sending you huge hugs!!

Court dates are very daunting, just as every step is in the legal process of divorce. As though we dont have enough problems with dealing with the emotional side of things!!!!

I dreaded the legal side because it was so FINAL, your whole marriage reduced to a document. It sucked and still does!!

Good luck:) :) :)

Only you can decide what to do. If you think it will bring you closure, then I would go. If you think it will only deepen your pain, then I wouldn't.

((((Aggie)))) Stay strong! :)
