Parole Hearing

 Tomorrow 

Well tomorrow is Ms last chance to come home early. 

The official parole hearing. The one that matters. The one in DC. 

We call in and speak our piece. To try to convince them that M would be better off at home. Which to us seems totally logical and well duh of course he would be better off at home. But to them he is a terrible person who did horrible things and should be kept locked away as long as possible. 

Yeah I know. They may not really think that. But it seems most people do. 

I am scared. We really have no idea what we are supposed to say. If we say the right things he gets to come home in May. If not it will be next May. 

We are all nervous. 

My father in law has started buying him tools to start a wood working business. This man who was never around for his own son. Who did not show up for our wedding. The one who can only spare one day when we come visit. Is being so incredibly supportive of M. While Rs own brother ,Ms uncle, is having second thoughts, his father is sending tools to help him succeed. 

I just can't.
