Waiting for sentencing for the OH and getting my head round the process as well as the various possible outcomes and preparing ... holding on to hope and sending it to anyone else who needs some!

I'm the same boat. Me and my OH are in limbo, awaiting his sentencing. Some days I go crazy thinking of the possible outcomes. Other days I don't think about it at all. I just have to remember that it is out of my control and whatever happens, happens.

All we have is hope so sending it to you too. Xx

Sending you both a HUGE hug as I was like you a few weeks ago and now I'm on the other side.......suspended sentence for our son after 3 years of anxiety and frustration came to an end.

This will be you one day soon, I promise, and you will be sending a hug to others who will sadly be coming along after you, themselves full of apprehension.

Well done for getting this far - you may not feel it right now but you have climbed a huge mountain and have only been able to see the insurmountably difficult way ahead, but the top is in sight and very soon you will be able to see the view as you start the descent. I'm not saying it will be easy but for me the end of the 'not knowing' was hugely releasing and now (6ish weeks later) I am starting to feel safe again.

Rainy day 52, as always your comments are always so comforting and reassuring. You are always spot on with what you say. I too am on the other side of it all, it feels like a long way back to any semblance of normality.
