GRANTED!

I WISH Expenses needed to attend grand daughters murder trial scheduled for May 11, 2009

4/08, my 14 month old grand daughter was brutally killed by my daughters boyfriend, while she was at work. The trial is scheduled to begin 5/11/09.
I desperately need to be there at the trial for in support of my daughter, my deceased grand daughter and my own sanity.
Currently, I am unemployed and I do not have the finances to attend this trial. The estimated expense for a round trip plane ticket (Albuquerque, NM to Dallas, TX), rental car (economy) for 2 weeks, parking, gas and food is $1200-$1500. Currently, I have housing for the trial. I appreciate your help more than you know.

    Thank you everyone, who has sent encouraging messages and information. Your support in this time of real need has nourished my soul with the pure honey of love, hope and faith. Your compassion and concern for my daughter and myself has given me strength and the ability to be more courageous for my daughter and within myself. We will survive this sad time and become refined and purified though the process. Bridgette, my grand daughter will be proud...

    Tif and Danna, I was able to connect with Danielle from Enterprise and make the date changes needed for the car rental. I will only have to put down $350 when I pick the car up and when I return the car, they will refund any monies owed to my debit card. This will save me about $50-70 on a car!! YEAH!!!

    I know that the both of you have LOTS going on in your own lives. Thank You Thank You Thank You for your time, love and for all of your help!!!! Debby

    Debby, The court date has been moved to 5-26-09. The indictment was not correct and we needed to change that. I haven't talked to your daughter yet but I wanted you to know as soon as possible so you could change your flight.

  • dlcummingsverified member icon 15 months ago

    KrissyTrimm - Thank you as well for your support. I wish for Universal Justice for my grand daughter. Sometimes in this world of chaos, things don't always seem to be fair and just and that we do not understand why...I know that if things do not go the way we hope with this trial, that "he" will get his just punishment anyway...please pray that what ever happens in this trial, my daughter and I will be able to accept its end result.

  • dlcummingsverified member icon 15 months ago

    Thank you so much Angeleyesm2 for your support. I am already beginning to feel the stress for the upcoming trial. I want so much to be strong for my daughter while I am there. I can always allow myself to fall apart later when all is said and done and she isn't there it see me in that state of mind. So if I can just hold it together for that week...Please continue to keep me in your prayers! I can feel the positive energy from them.

    Also, Amy, thank you for your note. I received it in the mail yesterday. Your kindness and emotional support is so greatly appreciated!

    Debby

  • KrissyTrimmverified member icon 15 months ago

    The trial date is quickly coming up and I want you to know you have many of us keeping you in our prayers. Just stay strong and keep your head up and don't let anyone beat you down. You can do this, your lil angel in Heaven will also be watching over you. May the Lord carry you and your daughter through this.
    Many Blessings,
    Kristie
    p.s. Remember, if justice is not served here on earth it WILL in Heaven.
