I saw a show about an American Prison on the East Coast a few weeks ago. Most of the show was about the negative side of solitary confinement; cons kicking windows, cutting themselves and going insane with boredom. The new Governor is reducing the number of cons in solitary cos it doesn't work!

Bill, Thank you for that little reminder of who I am & the love we've shared,bare with me for I'm weighting this through tear blind eyes so I can't even go over what I've already written. I only know if I don't get this out to you now it'll never get there so we may both end ep getting a laugh out ta this.
Since the kids have been returning themselves back to us(& what amazing kids we've been Blessed with) true forgiveness has fallen upon me, not only towards you but for myself as well, and I can read your blogs with a pure heart & remember what we had before we got all spun out was something most people will never experience in a life time, & a love as true as ours truly never dies,and the power of such a love is why our children are so amazing and I'm talking about all of them from Heather down to Allen (AJ) Thank you Bill for the experience of a lifetime!! I'm closing for now but will get back to you, that "My only Sunshine got to me"

Write about recent books you have read. I'm reading "Darkness at Noon" by Arthur Koestler at the moment, it's about a man in prison solitary confinement.

Yes indeed, children are a gift and not a human right. Some couples are lucky enough to have kids as a gift from God, others are not so lucky. That is the way life goes, I guess.

It's good you keep in touch with your kids through letters, it's like you work away in another country and can't see them much.

I think this is unfair. Do you think your children will be able to afford college? Brag about the fact you committed a crime and get these privileges while your children struggle to live a moral crime free life and get nothing in return. Their mother works until she aches fighting through her pain to provide for them. Their stepdad working sun up to dark 7 days a week to make sure they have food and a home. The system isn't built for people like us anymore. It's made for the corrupt. If you want to be proud figure out how to help the children you left behind the women who's left raising them. I would say your legacy but they are not. They are ours, the women who dispite once belonging to you have managed to raise beautiful smart and wonderful children.

... the rest I couldn't send, so here goes..
But now the prison has been less than cooperative! Why?? Nobody knows?
For Jessica there is only one option left thus, to make a court order for him to be admitted. So strange!!
I hope there is a way.Thanks for your help, Kelly!
All will go as it has to go.
I had wished to meet him on X-mas day. That's impossible now.
Now at least i'd like to get a phone call from him on X-mas Day! That would be so wonderful!
Free at last.... !

One day we'll meet, Kelly!! :)

Love from Rita! big hug and xxx
