- This morning my "daughter-in-law" posted a picture of my 5-year-old granddaughter doing some of her handwriting, which by itself was nice...........but then I noticed that my granddaughter had signed her name at the top with her mom's maiden name. I...
- I've been meaning to post here again, but so many days I just want to forget about everything. I don't ever forget about my son -- I write to him often and visit him every few months. But so many other things related to his situation are so...
- I live in Nebraska and my son is in prison in another state. I read about a prison riot in one of the prisons here in Nebraska yesterday, and today I found out that 2 inmates were killed in the riot, and they were both convicted of rape of a child....
- I have a few questions.My son -- and his wife who is filing for divorce -- each got a Form 1099-C in the mail and both came here to my house. This form is for Cancellation of Debt, because of the house they foreclosed on, which was sold at a...
- As shown by all the posts about Christmas, it's hard for all of us with loved ones who aren't around for the holidays. I just want to wish you all a Merry Christmas -- it's a little nicer knowing we have this group to turn to!I was able to see my...
- I try to give my soon-to-be-ex-daughter-in-law the benefit of the doubt because I know she's going through a rough time too, but when she posts pictures on Facebook that say nasty things like "They put dogs to sleep if they attack a child, so they...
- So Pistorius gets five years for killing someone, and my son gets 30 for touching his daughter (I had to sit through the sentencing and hear what actually happened -- there was no rape)
- I went to my son's sentencing today. Didn't turn out the way I had hoped. He got 30 years, 5 suspended, and will serve half that with the other half on parole. With time served, that would be about 11 1/2 years, which may not sound like a lot, but...
- My son's sentencing is tomorrow. I went shopping today and bought a new outfit and shoes, mostly because most of my real dressy clothes are old and don't fit the best anymore, and I wanted something in neutral colors that looks dressy enough but is...
- My son's sentencing is next week. Basically, his lawyer is asking for 15 years (the minimum) and the DA is asking 30 years, so it could be anywhere in between, depending on what the judge decides. I've had a roller coaster ride of emotions since he...
- I was on the phone with my son when apparently the phone "card" ran out of time and we were cut off. So annoying to have this happen and not be able to call him back! We weren't talking about anything important, in fact, I was just making supper and...
- I don't know why I keep putting myself through this: I saw that my soon-to-be ex-daughter-in-law had posted a message about the sentencing being pushed back (which I knew because my son's lawyer told me the other day -- they couldn't get his...
- I've asked family members to write character letters for my son, and I'm not sure if anyone has done it yet. I asked my son if there was anyone among his friends we should ask, and he said mostly his "battle buddies" from the Army. I went over his...
- I talked to my son's lawyer yesterday. My son had told me last week that the DA had offered a plea for 50 years (yeah, right!) and my son't lawyer had counter-offered the minimum, which is 15. Yesterday when I talked to him he said they were going...
- My soon-to-be EX-daughter-in-law texted me asking if I had taken money out of my son's account (which she keeps cleaning out, btw) and when I said I had -- told her it was to pay the lawyer to handle his side of the divorce, but it's basically so...
