To Whom It May Concern

I am a good friend of the Mother's son, and I have a bit of an inside view of what is best for Christopher Fernandez. I think most souls that have been through troubling times need guidance, compassion, and sometimes even more than a 2nd chance. Do to the nature of his illness, I believe he needs to be as close to the ones he loves, and trusts the most. Also I do believe that he needs programs that can help enlighten him starting at the level he's able to comprehend. I ofcourse am not penning this letter to undermine your knowledge and wisdom in this case at all. I'm only sharing my heart with you in this matter, because I know first hand that depression, as well as addiction can't be cured by bars alone. As well as in my opinion, they make matters worse, and make the person that suffers from such an illness only feel more isolated and alone. Please consider a mother's plea, and help her be near her son.. For I surely believe there's no-one who can reach another like a loved one. Thanks for your time reading my thoughts, and well wishes.

God bless,
A message from a concerned soul.

-Timothy Weaver

    Well said hun...Most people with positions such as they have,never even experience the type of life that all others have...If they could only experience it first hand then they would know the truth and maybe be more lenient towards those like Christopher...
    Great pen sweetie...
    Blessings

    If the system gives up so easily, what is the message sent. Our biggest resource will always be our youth.
    Best to you,

    Timothy, though your letter is short, you got right to the issue in a non-confrontational way. I tend to get angry at our system and get carried away with all of the injustices. You have written a very helpful letter, and we are all praying that our words do not fall on deaf ears.

    You are always there, always...

    I love the fact that you've penned this poignant letter to those in authority. Sometimes they need to be reminded that what us civilians have had to suffer through makes us more aware of situations such as these. Sometimes I believe the courts look at us as cattle, clumping us all into the same choral. It is my prayer that your letter tears at the heart of the judge and Christoper is given a second chance. A better chance, the chance his mom thinks, and knows he deserves.

    Thank you for being YOU!


    All My Love Always ♥

      Thanks.

      I just want the best for him and his mother.
      This world is so tough as it is, without no compassion and help.

      Much love, Timothy
