:mad: I have recently recieved a letter from my friend in the polunsky unit as well. He mentions questioning if anyone actually cares about HIM or if they are only chalking him up to a statistic. . . . I wrote to tell him of how much i love him and do care about him greatly. I mentioned how horrid it must be there, but couldn't actually imagine going through what he his.
Things and times have become almost unbearable for many there. This breaks my heart knowing that a very good friend of mine, a man i felt so secure when in his presence, is being treated so badly.
I am copying a request of another here on this message board - but could you all write a one liner, or more, telling my friend that there are people (tho they may be strangers) in the world whom care about individuals on death row and that they aren't just statistics to us all.
I would appreciate this and so would he.
Thank you.

i have a friend on the row there as well. its a living hell there. i feel for him and my heart goes out to him.

Hey! One of my best friends is on the row too!

From me, tell your friend that there are a lot of people out there who care about all of the people on DR.

I can't imagine what they go through. But, he is somebody. He has a life and I know people value it! God loves him, and he created him for a reason!

To your friend -- you are not just a statistic, you are someone that we all care about!

I truly do care!!! No one should ever feel like a statistic, they are real people, with real feelings and emotions. There are ALOT of people all throughout the USA and the world that do care about what is happening.

Now Live, tell your friend never to give up the fight, cause we certainly wont. (((hugs)))

now live , please pass this message on to your friend , people care all over the world and yes we are getting off our butts and doing things , Also tell him Richard Cartwright ask in his final statement that all the boys " stand tall and keep the heads up " . To many people they are more than a number and we are fighting for them all ....

Stand Tall Mate !!!!

I have two wonderful friends in Polunsky, and they both mean so much to me. I care about all the guys on the row, even though I don't know each and every one personally. United we stand to fight for all of you, so don't give up!! People DO care - even if you don't see it in your day to day life.

Stay strong!!

thank you for the kind words. I will be calling KDOL to shout out your messages. if you can get anything else in before 330 today, please let me know.
Love

The row is no place for a man or woman, let alone an animal. We all KNOW you are human, even tho the system is not treating you that way. Never give up hope! Keep God close.

I just called in and read all your messasges. Thank you so much for responding. I am sure that your word are appreciated and that we are all doing our part.

I heard you :) You did great!!! Wooohooo!!

Now Live
I missed it because of the time difference. Please let us know how your friend is doing after hearing some shout outs to him :)

HA HA !!!!!!!!
I"m glad someone heard me (LV Cassi) because i cannot hear myslef - dial up connection and no speakers here. . . . Thank you for telling me that I did great. wow - it was a time crunching experience. . . i had been emailing kdol for permission to get on air and reading this ALL AT THE SAME TIME. During the last 15 min before I called in was nerver racking and hectic. My head is still spinning even 2 hours later.

Thanks for all the kind words.

i'll let you know if he heard them~

You didn't sound nervous at all!

I heard you and you sounded great, not nervous at all. I had missed this thread otherwise I would've posted something for you to read as well.

THANKS EVERYONE! it was fun!

You should print this out for him, l am sorry I missed the opportunity to be invovled in the "shout out" but he should know that no, though it may feel like it, people on the outside have NOT forgotten him. Even yankees like me in Minnesota think and pray about those on DR in Texas..... please tell him not to despair, that we will fight the death penalty
