Tomorrow morning is THE court date for my daughter.

I appreciate all of your prayers and comments. I have cried so much tonight, my head is about to burst. As I am sitting here thinking of what time I need to get up to be at court in the morning, I am questioning whether I even should go. Amy Beth seems convinced that she will only get probation and even if she doesn't, what is my being there going to help? I'm tired of sitting in a courtroom and having my heart ripped out, knowing that my being there is not helping anything. All it is doing is bringing me further down and sickening my spirit. Whether I am there or not will not change the outcome. Seeing my daughter taken off in handcuffs and shackles once in court, was more than I care to see again. Sitting in the middle of a room full of strangers, bawling uncontrollably and having those strangers pass me kleenexes and tell me their stories, was also sufficient to go through ONCE. My husband cannot be there with me, and I don't feel strong enough to sit there all alone yet again. I know it is late, and few of you will have time to read this to help me make a decision on whether to go or not, but if you do, I would appreciate your input.

Confused,
Kim
