Why Texas Magnum
By Texas MagnumWhy do I call myself Texas Magnum?
Well the Texas part is easy. That’s where I am, and it’s a big, beautiful state.
The word “Magnum” is made up of letters of my name, more or less. Not all the letters are represented, but close enough.
I chose to post this blog anonymously for a couple of reasons. Being in prison isn’t cool, and there are some family members and family friends not to mention their work colleagues and associates who don’t even know I am here, and others that might be embarrassed or put off by it.
Personally, I don’t care. I am me. But, out of respect for my family and their friends, and also thinking ahead that during my time incarcerated I may post information that could be compromising to myself or my fellow inmates, I think it is best to post under a pseudonym.
That may change later on. Still thinking on it.
I am the mother of a 21 yr old (Florida) From juvenile to adult-in & out of jail. Now, there is a bench warrant out for his arrest. Drug charges, violation of probation, Grand theft. Last time in county jail he took a “Project Recovery” program. (help to cope without drugs/alcohol. Went 17 days and sent to hospital for being unresponsive (passes out on apt. stairs) Time before he was 10 days out of county only to return to jail.
I miss my son and am way concerned (rattled) Last we spoke (yesterday) he said he wanted a few days.
Whatever it takes ??
Hang in there Jayna. I put myself and my family through a lot before I went to prison. Rehab, jail, none of that worked for me, it took long-term incarceration for me to get inside myself and do some serious thinking about what I wanted. Sometimes it takes some real consequences to get it. I hope your son does better soon, you are in my thoughts.
Please let us know how you are truly doing.
