I'm still a bit nervous about posting on here, feels a bit like walking into a busy room and every head turns to look at you, but I am not coping very well at the moment. my son is in prison, again, it was in the press and my sister found out, I couldn't tell her the first time and now she is so angry with me. I don't even really know what we're facing this time, he says it's not the same as before but I just don't know what to think. the whole situation is so complicated I'm just struggling to keep going. I thought we had come through it, but this time it almost seems worse than the first time.

Oh Saphire so sorry this has happened. I hope your sister takes a minute to realise you have done nothing wrong and you could do with her support. However we are all here to offer non judgemental support whenever you need it. Sending love, take one day at a time and call the helpline when you feel up to it. Xx
thank you for the kind words, I haven't had a lot of them lately. My sister has made her feelings very clear towards me, and my son. I wrote to her and tried to explain why I felt I had to keep it secret but she just wrote some horrible things back. I know it is a terrible shock for her, I get it, but I have really been there for her over the years and her attitude towards me now is just making everything more difficult.
My person is my son Saphire. I have two sisters, I havent told them anything ( I dont think that is very unusual) I think we all have been advised to let as few people know as possible. I really believe they would support me..but if they didnt well I guess I would have to put some distance between us.
You have been good enough to give her an explanation. You cant make her understand. It saddens me to hear so little empathy from her.
Lean on us here. We understand what you are going through. Xx
