have you considered asking an advocate from the women's shelter to go with you just for moral support? someone to hold your hand and keep you focused until its time? It might help.

How are you today? :)

It's tomorrow - Friday. I have a court advocate and a womens shelter advocate going with me. These places are hidden, so men don't know where the shelters are. Therefore cannot find the womens shelter advocates.

Thank God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I see my domestic violence counsler. They aren't allowed to go to court because they help women and they can't be seen by men, it could put there lives in danger, because the men hate DV counslers because they help there wives, girlfriends, etc The DV place is not a hidden place, it is where you go for group, counseling, and get all the resources they can give you.

I guess I am ready for tomorrow, lets just hope he shows.

I am thinking of you and wanted to send you some postitive energy to help you make it thru the next 24 hours.
I hope you will sleep tonight.
Know that you are doing everything right.

My thoughts are with you also. I hope it goes well.
Let us know what happens.

Hi Nikko,
I want to let you know that I am thinking about you.
I hope that they can wrap this up so that you can move on to whatever good thing is next for you.

It's Friday at 7am............Thank you all. I did sleep, woke up a few times, but I feel raring to go, I want this over.
My nerves have kicked in big time.

I keep thinking - what if he doesn't show? what if he does get jail time and they give him 2 wks to get his affairs in order (that's a joke for him) I am going to tell the prosecuter he is a flight risk, since ALL of his family is back East. What if his public defender came up with a new plea and they ok it?

All these what ifs????????????????????????????? I guess I will know soon enough.

I am invited over friends tonight, hope I am in a mood to go. It probably would be the best thing I could do. I need to keep my emotions in check today.

I got a crisis hotline phone number from my DV counsler yesterday, since the office will be closed by the time I get out of court and the weekend.

Say a prayer, I need one.

Hugs, Nikko
