Been there, done that. Was held in a certain situation; had to be there or family killed. Had to wait for the opportunity to get out, after making sure family would be safe. Never caved; just planned. It can be done. Will the judge make a plan? We shall see.

😯 Wow... Glad you and your family are safe, Silver Cat. That sounds horrific. Glad all is well now. God bless!!!

Thank you, and God Bless you, Sam! Even though it was horrible, I am actually glad it all happened the way it did. I had wandered away from God for a while, and the whole crazy situation brought me back to God, and so, no regrets, except one: I was horrified that anything I had done would put my family in harm's way. Even so, when I was able to, I enlisted family members' assistance in getting out. Once they knew the situation, they were able to ask others for assistance as well; strength in numbers. Lesson learned: where there is a will, there is a way, always with God!
