my poor mother is a wreck! had to testify today!


Just spoke with my mother. My brother accepted no help while in Bridgewater. Court appearance was delayed until after lunch - she was there since before 10am. My mother had to speak and testify. My brother didnt talk. The court will either put my brother in Tewksbury hospital or a halfway house. The courthouse will call my mother tomorrow to let her know where my brother is sent. They say today was too much for her and dont want her returning. Please help me pray for my mother and brother - thank you

Hi Barb


I am relieved that the choices are a hospital or a halfway house.


This is quite a relief that your brother will not be staying with your mother.


I will keep your family in my prayers.

Been a while since I have been here, so I don't know the whole story, but I am sure I have been in a similar place just because of our common bond.  Keeping you and your family close at heart and prayer.


 


Love

Thank you - yes I know this so far sounds like a good outcome. We'll find out tomorrow. My mom sounds so broken.

My prayers are with you and your family Barb.


I have been following this and I think of you often.  As a mother of a son in prison I can so relate to your mom's situation.  At one point I also had to testify and that is way too hard for a mother.


God bless you and your mom and give you all peace.  God's love and blessings on your brother.

Hello Barbara , so sorry about your mom but she will be okay. This is a big test of reality for yoour mom finally admitting what was actually going on at home. You can bet she is feeling guilty about her son, victims do that.   Hugs to you and mom.  And your brother is right where he is supposed to be , he will get help ,even if he dosen't want it.   keep the focus on your self and help mom get thru this . Hopefully they will order councelling for her too.  bye for now

My mother called me again last night. She is thinking of going for counseling. I suggested meanwhile that she find an AlAnon meeting.
