I Should be Totally Grey

It seems that life is landing some heavy blows to my already overloaded brain. My head is spinning. The tears are flowing in rivers today. I should be totally grey. But, I breathe. I cry. I breathe.
Tomorrow is the birthday of my twin sons. They will be 24 years old. One will not be able to celebrate due to being falsely accused of an incident and he was incarcerated because of it. His arrainment will be on the 27th. Prayers are needed to help him and his family with this ordeal.
My head is spinning. I breathe.

Oh, my dear Lord, Sarina...I just got to your discussion. How did his arraignment go? I pray that it will all come out all right. What a horrible, horrible situation for your family. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Please let me know how it goes.

Oh you poor darling. You must be feeling so much distress and unhappiness. Your poor boy...he must be feeling rotten going through this ordeal, 24 is not so old that he can be stoic throughout out the proceedings. He's probably scared as anything.
If he has been falsely accused is there no way of finding the real culprit?

Bless yours and his as well as his family's hearts. Oh sweetie I am so sorry to hear this. You are right, breathe. Take everything one moment at a time and do not dwell on what might be, but where you and he are at the moment. Have faith everything will turn out right in the end. Be strong for yourself, him and his family. I am so sorry this has happened.
You can cry and scream and shout if it will help you get back on your feet where he and you children need you. Do not let this drag you down to where you will not be able to help. I can imagine this has upset and turned everyone’s life upside down in your family. These things very seldom only affect the person being accused.
I will keep you all in my prayers until it is all passed and it will, I have faith it will.

My family, 4 generations of the females, have all been prematurely gray. I was lucky being blond it was not noticeable but my mother and daughter have both really dark hair and they both had silver hairs at 17 years of age.

I am so sorry to hear of your sorrows! You say his family; is your 24 year old boy already married? Seems so young! I guess I was young to myself first time round. I know your sad but the bible tell us joy comes in the morning! Also His mercies are new every morning. So in His strength you will get through this. I hope you son knows who to rely on as well! Prayer is the most powerful thing we can do for one another and ourselves on this earth. You are not alone!

You are in my thoughts as is your son. I have a 21 year old son and would be out of my mind if something like that happened. Just know you will be able to celebrate when this mess is cleared up and have that party for him when he gets out of there.
Breathe...

Hugs, and prayers for you and your family, my friend. Sometimes we wonder why we keep on breathing. Our heart beats, our mind spins. Why do the wicked prevail? We go on, we hold our heads up, we lift our loved ones up, and then after being battered we come out on the other side.

Now if your son was falsely accused, he should be receiving proper defence. Were you able to hire a lawyer?
This is very similar to what happened to my 14 year old daughter recently. She was falsely accused too. The Police seem to have no interest in defence, as may well be the case with your son. It seems that anyone can go around making false accusations. The police just want a conviction.
It is a terrible ordeal, so I know exactly how you feel.
In our case, the accusations were made by my step children. This has been traumatic for my husband.
The police decided my daughter was guilty, & msaid she would get a caution. I flatly refused. I got a lawyer instead.
If your son has a good defence, & a lawyer, they may find him innocent, & sue for costs.
I am grey, in fact amost white.
Let me know what happens with this, if you want, & what they accused him off.

My goodness, Elusive, I will surely be praying for you and your family. It does seem sometimes that we are constantly being tried and tested. Nobody said that life was fair, but sometimes it just plain stinks! I hope that you will dry your tears and trust that He is still in control. All my best.:D
