My boyfriend will have court tomorrow and I'm going as support but I am so worried what the outcome will be. I feel sick from worrying as I'm really not sure what he is going to get. I am also worried he will be moved to a different prison further away and have a visit next week if it's further I may not be able to get there. I have a feeling he is going to be gone a while but I don't know how I'll cope if it's longer than what I imagine. It's so stressful not knowing and the wait when you arrive at court I will feel so nervous :(

Ahhh honey good luck. I'm sure it's completely normal to have all these feelings. I've decided not to go to court because I've been through enough trauma so I think you're really brave, let us know how it goes xx

It's completely normal to have these feelings, some how the hours tick by slowly but then all of a sudden the day and time arrives. At least tomorrow you will know the outcome, whilst that might be very hard, you will know what you are working with and sometimes not having the unknowns can be a huge help.

Hi so the case has been moved to middle of October, it gives him 6 weeks to talk with probation and for me to write a letter to the judge explaining how I will help him and support him through this.
It's now another 6 weeks of not knowing what to expect and being worried every day and night. The time he's looking at isn't great but I'm hoping for a miracle on that day, if it's a long time I don't know if I can cope with the stress of this for a lot longer. I want to believe he will come out and change but I'm not sure if he will and that hurts so much
