Intake facility...time to move on.

Larry is starting to get very down hearted. It is hard when he has seen other inmates come in and go now. He is starting to wonder when will be his turn. It makes it hard not knowing where you are going or when you will be going there. His nerves are so uptight and it really shows in his voice when he talks.

Larry is very worried about his relationship with Draydon. When Larry was gone for a few short months in 2004, Draydon suffered extreme anxiety over it. He suffered from separation anxiety for all these years since that time. Dray has now found it necessary to keep himself extremely busy to avoid any emotions. In staying busy, Dray does not have much to say to or about his dad. I know it is his way to protect himself as he HATES to cry, but it is literally tearing Larry's heart out to feel the distance. Larry told me yesterday that he promised Draydon years ago that he would never leave him again. He feels that Draydon feels betrayed and lied to. My poor boys, I hurt so very much for both of them. They are both hurting so badly and I don't know how to fix it for them. Danene is as always, her Daddy's little girl. She talks about her dad all the time and finds songs to dedicate to him almost daily. I pray my family will heal and recover from all of this pain.
