A message from Dreadbelly's Dreadful Things.

Thanks everyone.

This aint over till the dust settles.

I am slowly digging my self out of this hole... Gain income. Finish school. Employ self. GET A LICENSE. Try to get a car. Fight tooth and nail to have some kind of meaningful existence. And once the finances and situation allow, adopt, adopt, adopt. If all else fails. Somehow. I don't really know what is possible here. I am a convicted felon, I know this is going to come back and bite me in my **** repeatedly through my life.

Adoption would be a funny thing for me I think. My mother lost custody of me at a young age. I really wanted to be adopted by someone, any one. I had some really bad fosters. I wound up in correctional facilities, detention centers, boys ranches and work farms, and mostly just living on the streets as a runaway. The adoption never happened.

There were a few nice places though, like Morning Star Boys Ranch in Spokane WA, Father Joe and his bunch were good to me, better than most. And Alpine Boys Ranch in Leavenworth WA, they saved my life and my soul.

My heart goes out to you and your lovely wife, Dread. You're in my thoughts.

I'll add you and the Mrs. to my prayer list, Dread.

God's miracles do happen. I pray one can find you.

[Sorcha Griannon]

You both are in my thoughts, and I agree...never give up.

Like others, I'm a latecomer to this thread.

Dread, you and your wife are in my thoughts and prayers.
