My son had me pick up his property from the county jail after he was transferred to st cloud I knew doing this was gonna be emotional for me do I kinda put it off. I got the property and put it in the passenger seat and even through the vag I could smell his smell, I lost it. I opened the bag and was gonna look at the pictures I had sent to him over the months and in one if the envelopes I had sent him was a drawing I opened it up and it said I live you mom, with two rises. It was beautiful, and it broje my heart knowing I couldn't thank him with a hug. I am just starting this journey and it is literally the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with. I pray to God to keep him safe.
Thanks guys for letting me know I'm not alone, if your not living it you just don't get it. Lisa Collins I moved it his stuff from the front seat to the hatchback. Lol it's almost out if my car.
I know that same feeling. When Michael was arrested I had to pick up all his belongings from the halfway house. I think I drove around for weeks with them in the back of my car. One day I finally got the guts up to go through. And yes the smell of his cologne pushed me over the edge. Hang in there momma. Thankful, you had that little blessing of finding that sketch. Even if painful.
My granddaughter found her dad's body wash in a box which I had hidden in a closet. My heart broke when she smelled it, shrugged her shoulders, then placed it on the table with no comment. She has not seen him almost 2 years...I fear he will never see her again. His lawyer told him that the D.A. is looking at 75 years if he doesn't come up with more information or rat on the guy who committed the crime....does not even seem real for this to be happening! Today in church, I shed crocodile tears for first time in months. When I visited him, it was all I could do to hold it together. Continue to be in prayer for our sons...Diane
