@goustocooking @ChrisWStoke @DeterminedTrav I've also received floury white rolls again this week instead of ciabatta. So disappointed if this is a permanent change.
@Jennamc9@Elsie2127 Yes. You feel so disempowered when you're unable to phone them when needed. And waiting around for incoming phone calls takes over your life. This would be one of the most effective ways of reducing the punishing impact of imprisonment on families & loved ones.
For the fifth and final year, this wall and a few barren metres are keeping me and my husband apart on Christmas morning. But next year will be different! Merry Christmas to anyone who is apart from somebody they need to be close to today x๐x
@Rlyforreal Not being able to talk to your partner is horrible. I remember feeling so unsettled, worried and anxious until I heard his voice again. I really feel for you.
@RoryStewartUK Most people seem unable to recognise that prisoners aren't monstrous aliens, but are people a lot like them who came from, and will return to, normal society someday. Until people stop seeing prisoners as 'other', there will be no pressure on the government to improve prisons.
@MrsAMCx I used to do this as a child! I've got no expertise on who to approach about it (maybe both?) but it's definitely worth investigating- I still have problems with my achilles tendons decades later and they think it's linked to my toe walking.
@Rainbowgirl1982 I usually walk out and comfort eat everything and anything I can get my hands on! I always want us to be walking out of the door together, that's for sure. Every time you're one visit closer to the day he comes home with you xx
@xmziex Amazing dissertation to write - possibly the most traumatic point of the whole sentence? I think there's an enormous need for information at that point -prison is an unknown and holds a lot of fear. Always think a point of contact like a family liaison officer would help so much.
Only a couple of weeks to go now. For years, this song has been my reservoir to draw on when I needed to feel some hope but it never resonated as much as it does right now!
