Good Morning my new friends! I just wanted to introduce myself as a newbie and tell you all how much of an impact you've unknowingly had on my life. My Mom is the one who introduced me to this heinous trial and through my wanderings on the internet I found this site.
You have no idea how much this site has gotten me through the unexpected death of my beloved Mother. She and I spent the last few months watching the trial together, going so far as watching it everyday while we were on vacation in Cape May NJ last month.
A week after we got home she tripped and broke her shoulder and when she recovered fully from surgery, they transferred her to a rehab facility after 2 weeks in hospital (we had the trial on the telly in the hospital always). The morning after she was transferred I received the call. At 5:15am, my Mom passed away.
Needless to say I'm a wreck, but somehow coming here is helping me to cope, and makes me feel closer to my Mom.
I've read things here enough to turn my poker-straight hair curly, and I am amazed at the strength you all have. I look forward to joining in the discussions here about the JA trial (I hate to even give her the respect of using her name) and I Pray for Justice for Travis Alexander and his beautiful family.
In my heart, I truly feel wonderful Juan Martinez will ensure Justice for Travis.
God bless you all, and thank you to the mods who helped me sign up here, losing my Mom so recently seems to have made even the simplest of things difficult.
