Thank you for sharing this. I’ve been so looking forward to reading this particular piece of writing from you, dear friend. ❤️ I hope that you’re able to give yourself plenty of space to process in the next weeks and months, because I’m sure your feelings will continue to be extremely complicated.
Oh Bridget! I only know you & your son/family via your words, but i am sending you as much love and empathy and support as I can via the ether. YOU HAVE BEEN THRU SO MUCH. *I* felt an emotional roller coaster reading this post, and that was just me reading your words; you had to (& are still) walking through it & living it & it could and will take a lifetime to integrate all of this. I wish all the best to you & your whole family -- and a stretch of peace & joy to rival this very long nightmare.
Oh my gosh. I'm with Erin. I've been looking for the day this one published. And the irony of Ozzy soundtracking the moment! It really feels scripted in so many ways. I want to say that I am 'happy' for you, because I truly am. But we know this is a first new step for all of you that does not promise ease. Prayers for you and your family Bridget; for everything you are dealing with.
This brought me such incredible joy to see this sitting in my inbox, I started to cry even before reading. I am so very, very glad that Dylan is home and safe with you. It was such a gift to read about what the experience felt like from the other side, as someone who has sat in that cell waiting for that final call. So much love for you and your family 💜
For your daughter, I'm not sure if this would be possible to visit but it remains on my personal bucket list to make it in person, to Selah Carefarm for the traumatically bereaved in New Mexico. They also offer really wonderful support services for individuals after sudden, traumatic losses which were very helpful for me. Holding her, and you, in lots and lots of love. https://www.missfoundation.org/selah-carefarm/visit-us/
Last thing, I did finish reading Bone Valley and would to join a zoom call with the community when it happens if I can. It was a beautiful and challenging read, as someone who was wrongfully accused of murder it brought up many things-- both about the personal experience but the similarities and differences in our encounters with the larger system.
I am bawling. OMG the image of that hug. 🥹
