[QUOTE="PonyGirl65, post: 682098, member: 20087"] What a great thread for me, today. Thank you all for your contributions, and to you, Jabber, for creating this. My son will be sent to the intake facility within the next few weeks. From there, he will be placed in one of the two prisons in my state which offer AA/NA programming. All of this timing is unsure at this point. I am currently keeping hold of myself until he actually gets to where he will be, for the next four-to-five years. Do you know what I mean? I am keeping myself in check as far as what prison he'll be placed in. Like, I'm not going to freak out about it, or spend time researching or whatever, until he's actually placed. Once he's transferred to his 'permanent' 'home' (blech) then I will probably begin to process the whole ordeal. I mean, I have done some crying and some praying and some hoping since he's been sentenced. But, I feel like I will need to go through a period of time where I actually absorb the facts and figures. Sigh. Onward! He called me last night and sounds like he's in acceptance of what's happening. Said he believes he got what he deserved, and he is going to try to take every advantage of whatever opportunities are offered. He apologized to me, that he put me through that day last Friday. As well as all the other days leading up to last Friday, over the years of half his lifetime so far. Not the first apology I've gotten from him, but it sure would be nice if it was the last......
