I am very saddened today to learn that my mother was taken into custody over something that is not too clear yet, other than I know it's regarding "financial things" that I really don't feel like mentioning. I learned this after calling my step-dad today. I don't believe she would do such a thing, she said so herself. I just wanted everyone to know because I feel confident that you all are a solid, good group. I've always believed that.

I feel confused, depressed, angry...so many emotions, I can't explain here. As I am her only son I feel like the whole world is crashing down. I am married now, but when I was growing up it was just her and I. We have been through some tough times. Please give your thoughts, prayers, and concerns for her at this time. I love my mother very dearly and know that something isn't right about this entire situation.

Haldur! I am so very sorry you and your family are having to go through this. I am here too if you need someone to talk to, but you will also be in my thoughts and prayers. Please take care of yourself. I can imagine you are very upset right now.

Haldur, you already know I'm here.

Haldur,
I have a vague idea of what you are going through. I grew up close to two of my cousins. It had been a while since we last spoke, and I learned not too long ago that one of them was now in prison awaiting trial for murder.
When something like this happens to someone we know so well, whether they did it or not, is detrimental to us. We start questioning all kinds of things. And I will tell you what I told the rest of my family. Have faith, the truth will come to light, it can not be hidden for too long, and regardless of the outcome, we must always remember to love. Love, as is said, can cover a multitude of sin.

I know everyone here has said it, and meant it, but if you need to chat or talk, my door is open.

Iago said it so well I couldn't do it any better myself. I second that and only want to add that my thoughts and prayers are with you and we are all here for you.

Haldur, I honestly don't know what to say except that you have friends here who care about you and will stand ready to help if they can. You will certainly be in my thoughts and prayers.

Haldur, I am so sorry that you are having to go through all of this right now. While we cannot understand why this is happening, we know that God is good, and that He hears us, even when we do not know what to pray. I am praying for you and your entire family, especially your mother.

Thank you all for your kind words! smile.gif My thoughts are with my mother as I hope she does not have to stay in jail any longer. There are hopes tonight that she can be freed for she is not doing very well at all. I love her and stand behind her all the way!

Again, thank you for your thoughts, words, and open doors!

My apologies for arriving late to this thread. You have my prayers and meditations for you and your mother. Hope all is going well. Any news as of late?

I, too, have just seen this thread. Haldur, stay strong, my friend. Remember we are all praying for you and your mom.

Some updates as of the past few days...

My wife and I visited Mom Wednesday afternoon and I have to say it honestly broke my heart to see her crying. She feels ashamed, hurt, angry, weary, and so much more. I even went to a bank yesterday to see if I could possibly get a loan for her bail money but the bank pretty much laughed in my face as kindly as possible. The bail money is $5,550 and the irony of all this is that my family (my aunts/uncles and grandmother) have the money but are unwilling to help out.

This saddens me also as I feel that Mom is being betrayed. She is very hurt about this fact and I have washed my hands of them and their greed. Although one of my aunts is very angry about our family's response there's nothing that can be done at this time until we find out my mother's fate at the pre-trial which is on March 14th. I would sell all I own but it probably wouldn't pay the bail...we are hoping it is lowered by 10% Monday, providing Mom's court-appointed attorney pleads her case well and convinces the judge.

All we can do now is trust in God and hope she pulls through. I don't know if anyone else can identify with this, but what hurts me the most is my mother is rotting in jail over something she did not do and that my family is not willing to help out when times get tough!

Once again, thank you all very much for the prayers, meditations, and thoughts. You are a very special group of people to me and my wife, Sarah! We love you all very much from the bottom of our hearts and cannot begin to thank you enough for your graciousness, understanding, and unconditional love!

Cead Mile Failte!

Oh Haldur. I am very sorry to hear the recent news. I will continue to pray for you and your mother and that family members will have a change of heart. Take care of you and Sarah.

I am sorry to hear about the problems your mother is having. A good lawyer should be able to help. I suspect some responsibility on the part of the bank. Some people have problems with money, my wife thinks of credit cards a a loan between friends, and of course my friend would understand if I can't pay you back right now. The bank just keeps sending out the credit cards though, and adding every late fee known to man.

Haldur I know this expierence is not only upsetting but elicites anger and depression. The best way to handle this is to get the facts first before you react to the situation. This could be a mistake that could be confirmed or it may be you lack sufficient information to access the situation. So truely get the facts before you get upset. Sometimes looking at the facts puts things into perspective.
