Surviving Inside To See Outside

Welcome to my blog, where I document the journey of my 20-year-old son, Alex, as he navigates the tumultuous waters of the criminal justice system. Charged with Vehicular Manslaughter, Alex finds himself behind bars awaiting trial, his future hanging in the balance. With only weekly phone calls, I delve into the impact of our family and his future self.

About Me

My name is Claire

As a mother to a 20-year-old son incarcerated for Vehicular Manslaughter, I find solace and purpose in journaling our journey. Each entry serves as a lifeline, tethering me to my son's absence while allowing me to navigate the tumultuous waves of emotions that accompany his situation. I reminisce about his once bright future, his sharp mind, and his boundless talents, all now confined within the walls of a prison cell. Through our weekly phone calls, I strive to be a beacon of encouragement and support, guiding him towards a future that transcends his current circumstances. This blog is my way of connecting with him, offering mindset insights, and fostering hope for a compelling future beyond these prison walls.
