[QUOTE="Merris, post: 51014, member: 849"] Things are going as planned. The probation department is going to interview difficult child on Monday at the jail as part of his pre-sentence investigation. I'm praying that the judge agrees to mental health/sub abuse treatment and he will be out of that place for good. I received a form in the mail from the court called the "Victim's Statement" and I faxed it to difficult child's lawyer because I don't know what to say. Obviously I can't say this hasn't had an effect on me. You can't have someone attack you with a knife and not have a little PTSD. I don't want to be dishonest, CAN'T be dishonest, but I don't want to muck things up either. The letter says he will be sentenced on July 9th and I'm hoping that's true. difficult child will be mortified at what he has done when he hears about what the lasting results are from the attack. He needs to know, but I never told him. I can't shower without the dog in the bathroom, when husband is away I am terrified and sleep on the couch, I can't walk alone to my car at work, even in broad daylight. I know this will hurt him to hear all this, but the reality is the reality. I have to say I am proud of the way he has held himself together. He's a very big man and is constantly challenged in the jail, but he won't fight. He never would. He doesn't want to get in trouble and he never was violent, except this one time. He's getting very frustrated and it's all he can do to hold it together. I sent him some books and he was pretty happy about that. (MY difficult child reading??!! Who'd of thunk it!) It's nice to know that there are people who care here and I know Ant's Mom, you've been through the worst of it. I admire and take courage from you... Merris [/QUOTE]
