    Huggs Shaz,are you and your friend ok? it seems your son has not learnt anything from the last time.I know about his illness ect but would it be possible for him to go to some sort of anger management class?if something is not done he could end up really hurting you or another person.Is your friend still with you?hope you are not on your own.Keep us updated to what happens maybe this time they will keep him in over night.

    Shazrobo,

    I guess people who regularly post here will understand the background to this and perhaps I would if I read this thread which I may do some day but not today as I feel fragile, but I'm not here to post about me so back on topic...

    It sounds like you need a big hug, and I'm sure you my wife won't mind me giving you one so /hug :o

    I hope you can keep strong.

    Hugs,
    Ossian
    hi ossian, and welcome to the thread, thanks for taking the time to reply when your feeling fragile yourself.

    Hi Shaz,

    Big hugs for you. Im so sorry that your son has done this and I send big hugs to you. I wish I could come round in person and give you moral support but I hope you know that Im sending it through the internet instead.

    I won't be on here until Monday now so won't be able to come on here and give you support tomorrow. I shall log in on Monday morning and hope you are better. Best wishes. ((()))

    :wave:

    Katie - hope your new steamer is working well

    Shaz - Sorry about your lad. I hope it all sorts itself out and your boy gets at worst, a warning.

    ossian :wave:

    gemini :wave:

    beachbeth - See you Monday! (on here!)

    La-Cara - How are you?

    I'm ok. Still missing my cat (and my tooth :o) It's almost as if she never existed. Other cats seem fine, flatmate seems fine. I literally haven't smiled in 2 1/2 weeks, since she passed on. No-one's even mentioned her apart from telling me I shouldn't talk about her :o

    just had a phone call from police, he is still in there custody, they are waiting for an appropriate adult to be presant so he can be charged with assault, cps have decided they are taking it to court, really scared, i have never been in a court before, and i have trouble speaking in front of groups of people. still dont know if they are bringing him home tonight, or if it will be in the morning. i'm exhauted but still cant sleep.
    hi la cara, how are you?
    miro, course you should still talk about your lovely cat, talking is part of the grieveing process

    hugs

    Did they not say on the phone when he could come home? You may not have to speak, if he pleads guilty.

    No-one is letting me talk about her. I don't mean talk for ages, I mean just mention her name, acknowledge her existence or anything. It's just not important to anyone else.

    I'm still saying goodnight to her, carrying her ashes around the house with me etc. Crackers I may be, but i'll not forget her.
