From people who came through it
“If you're scared right now, I get it. I've been there. For me it was about three years ago. My husband got 4 years, every single day. This morning I sang in the car. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.”

Kyle L · been through a loved one in prison“I was right where you are about three years ago. It was my husband got 4 years and I couldn't see past it. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It's slow, but it does come back.”
Lost Bramble · been through a loved one in prison“To the one just starting this: the first days are the hardest. The silence, the questions. You will learn to live with it. Find one person you can talk to, even if it's just to say nothing. The phone calls will hurt, but they also connect. And your children, they are stronger than you think. They will ask questions. You don't have to have all the answers. Just keep going. The worst is over, and you are still here.”
