Hello everyone, I am new. The love of my life is set to come home in less than 65 days. I am scared for him as well as myself. He has been down now for almost 4 yrs. I recently moved into his home, getting it ready for when he returns. I have a 4 yr old son who was adopted just recently and my boyfriend is crazy over him, since he is 45 and never had children of his own. I also, have a 19 yr old daughter who is due to have our first grandson, at any day now. So as you all can see, its going to be a big change,for us all. I have also been single for 14 yrs. I love Terry so much and know that he is my soul mate and the one,that God has led me to. He has not been with anyone other than inmates in 7 yrs we have been together for about a year now. Any advice that any of you can give me, will be most welcome feel free to email me direct if you wish. I love Prison Talk on line!!! I have been looking at this site for months now. But couldnt post or chat due to my mistakes. Thanks to JamieinTX for helping fix that problem..

I don't have any sage advice for you but someone will come along with some. I just wanted to welcome you to PTO! Blessings to you and your mate.

Having them come home is always a little bit nerve wracking!! I think we all stress over it even though some may not admit to it :D!! But, it does seem that you've already made great progress in getting your homelife settled in preparation for his return -- he's a lucky guy!! From my own experience and from all the wonderful advice I've been given over the years, just give him time to readjust. Love him and offer your quiet support. He will probably feel a bit overwhelmed by all the 'newnesses' but he'll get back into the swing of life swiftly enough.

Best of wishes to you and your family...

thanks for the supprt...I know we will all be ok, but it is scary but I am so so ready to have him home..

He had me from hello..........

Terrysheart,

Forgive me but I am trying to understand your story.Did you not know him prior to incarceration? That's what I am Assuming.. But you know what assuming does.. LOL
It will be an ajustment either way. the first couple of day's will probley feel surreal to both of you.. anywho.... Good Luck And Welcome to PTO

No, I didnt know him before he went in, but its been by the grace of God that we found each other.. He had placed an add for a pen pal with a service and I was up late one night and couldnt sleep and was watching Riki Lake and the gave several web sites for inmates wanting pen pal. So all I could remember was the one, where I found him.So after looking and looking for hours. I was about ready to give up. And I clicked on his and fell head of heels.. He is everything I ever dreamed of and could ask for. He has never had children of his own and I have a son that I just got adopted and he was also adopted as a child, he has diabiettes and our son is border line diabittec, and his home where I am now living is like the place I use to dream of living in the country. So I do believe with all my heart and soul that God gave us ...
Sounds like a story book love I know but its real and I thank god for it everyday, I have never been so happy in all my life..also our paths had crossed before when he was in the free world we just never met.. We have been together now for almost a year..

Hi! My husband came home 3 1/2 months ago and having him home has been a true joy. I love him more than ever and while he was away, my heart broke every single day. It hasn't been all peaches and cream, but no amount of strife with him home compares to the pain of him being locked away.

Just enjoy him and your life and take it slow...about one day at a time should do the trick.

Best wishes and lots of luck to you! :)
