thank you, all..........

[pegasus]

Sending love and caring thoughts your way.

But no money sorry.

money doesn't matter. support does.......xoxoxo pat

a shout out for all who PMed me last night and all who posted with support. it means the world to me..........

the "friend" showed up at the end of the long driveway about 10:30 last night. i was in the house, here, and just felt like i should go outside. i saw his profile and slipped behind some bushes (imagine me, i wished for black paint and black clothes) and eased around behind the rectory and saw that it was him for sure.

i called the cops and they came, but didn't find him. i'm feeling a bit "stalked" now. they patrolled all night and flashed a spotlight on the house to let me know they were here..........

[bebop]

don't they know where this jerk lives?

[sassypants]

Sending you a little money, along with prayers and love.
It's not much, but I hope it helps.

[allthegirls6]

why would he come round when he knopws what he had one. Doesnt he know the ppolice are looking for him.

1. he hasn't been to his "home" recently and i don't know the address. i only know how to get there. AND it's in another county.....

2. thank you sassypants.....very much

3. it worries me that he's around here when he surely knows that i've filed a police report. i would think that he might have seen them last night.

this is the last thing that i would have thought he would do. he's always been a steady person and i would have trusted him with my life. i've decided that he's using. that's why he never had much money and he also got very thin.

i have a headache from all of this. think i'll lie down under the AC and try to forget it for awhile.

love to all of you, xoxox pat

I'm worried for your safety, and I do understand how overwhelmed you are feeling at this time.
Be safe!

Sending you warm thoughts and prayers for safety my friend. Be careful.

be careful.... (hugs)

[DePressMe]

Pat, I am sorry you are going through all this...in some ways, it kinda frustrates me that I can't do anything for you. But, I hope you know that at least I care and I will do anything I can to help out. PM me if you want to chat.

I donated but it was in Canadian dollars, will it be accepted? In PayPal, the status is still unclaimed.

[Juliana]

Pat, sweetie, you know how sad (and angry) I am that this happened to you. If I had the world, I would give it to you. Unfortunately (as you know), I just quit my job, so all I have to offer right now is emotional support. E-mail me anytime.

Big hugs... xoxooxox

Pat,

I think that is horrible that he is coming around your home. You need to be very careful & don't go out alone.

I remember how I felt with that home care person for my Mother......she knew that I filed a report with Adult Protective Services against her the day after she OD'ed my Mother.....when I walked out to my car that morning to go file the police report & then go to the hospital to be with my Mother.....I was afraid to even get into the car to drive it for fear she had done something to it.......then when I was on the way to the police station, as I was coming up to the corner to turn to the police station.....she was following me in the car right behind me.

Needless to say, I never went back to stay in my Mothers house after that since I was alone & really was afraid of what she might do to keep me quiet.

Your fear of him should be very real.....especially if he is using.....you never know what their minds will tell them to do in order to protect themselves......& their judgments aren't very good considering what he did to you financially.

Take care of yourself......& beware & be safe....most of all. Glad you called the police. At least they are aware that he is around your house.....maybe that will make him think twice before trying anything.

Don't mean to scare you......just want you to take care of yourself.....these people can't be trusted....they are horrible,

You are in my prayers,
Debbie

[tranquility]

Thanks for doing this doc! I'm in awe of so many wonderful people who pull together to help another human being. Just when you think the human race is sinking, something like this comes along!

Pat - keep your chin up. Maybe a reason will come through of why you needed to go through such a terrible experience. You have many people here who are about you, so at least that was one positive.

Dry those tears girl! Don't let him continue to hurt you!

Fayerody I am sending your caring thoughts and prayers....be safe..

Everyone who has talked me through this and helped me get through this next month.......THANK YOU . you'll never know what everything means to me. The messages and PMs are awesome and I love you all.

I am humbled that so many did so much. I've laughed and cried and fumed and fussed and you all have been patient and supportive through this past five days. It seems like a month, but it's five days.

I've been betrayed before. And it always hurts. One thing that happened this time is that I lost a friend. There will be no going back and that saddens me, because we were close and had a lot in common. So, I've had to experience a lot of different emotions in a short time.

I am going forward with the case and he's being charged with credit card fraud. He may disappear and never be punished. My sister, who also loved him, was a bit surprised that I am pressing charges. I told her that if he's caught and incarcerated, it might help him. If I don't do anything and something else happens, I would always think that I might have prevented it.

Am I making any sense now? My mind is really exhausted after all of this.

This is a wonderful community and I had no idea I had so many friends here.

I know I have a safe haven and that really means more than you'll ever know. love, pat
