tomorrow is court day for my abf,he has made a mess but it's his mess,I do have empathy for him and feeling somewhat sorry for him for its not looking good at all he is looking at years in prison without a lawyer so we going today or he is to talk to a lawyer about getting it put off again,so I can feel the bad vibes going on here,so easy does it for me,and think before I speak,taking deep breaths ,I don't know what to say to him or do,nothing I can do its out of my hands,my a/sister is showing compassion toward him concerning it,Im nervous just because he is being depressEd,this to shall pass. Thanks for listening and allowing me to vent a bit, it helps me to reevaluate my alanon tool kit and slogans ........hugs lu

Let go and let God works well, You are powerless over this situation . I am sure a Public Defender will be assigned and just maybe he can negotiate a more favorable sentence such as rehab etc.
Serenity prayer works.

Thanks again Betty for the ESH,he seems to be confident now,he says he has a lawyer that's suppose to call him,so just see how it goes,I'm just staying out of it and listening to him if he needs to talk but so far he seems content,I'm turning the focus back onto me,and knowing God has got this sit.whatever the the outcome it is of his own doings and his consequences will follow,he knows he was guilty of all of it,part of gods plan ,I have no control ,And wouldn't even if I could,thanks for the ESH.........hugs lu
