Waiting for him to be transferred to DOC..this is hard

This is my first post, but I have been popping in and out of here for several months and have found great comfort in knowing there are so many wonderful women willing to pray and help each other through these difficult times.   My son plead 10 days ago and has been at the detention center waiting to be transferred to R&C.  He is so very anxious to get this next step over with, but no one seems to know how long it will be before he's transferred, and then of course we know there's no way of knowing how long he'll be there before being sent to his parent facility. This nightmare began 11 months ago and I really thought I've handled things pretty well given the circumstances...but these last days have been really really hard.  Is this pretty typical?

  • Mary...our circumstances sound so similar.  He pled guilty on Jan 4th and is at the detention center anxiously waiting to be transferred to R&C.  We thought it would be days but it has been weeks.  The waiting is so hard but he is staying strong...more than I.  I have found great comfort on this site realizing that I'm not the only mother going through this nightmare.  God Bless.

  • It is hard..so hard. Sometimes we just get worn out. It is a roller coaster of emotions. Hopefully things will settle down soon. Waiting is very hard. Hugs.
