I am def in . Continued prayers and to better days to the canuck family. Great idea gibber:toast: :toast:
Prayers Please!
- Thread starter canuckfan77
- Start date
I couldn't tell you what it would mean to my family and I if we were ever able to take the kids to Disney land.
If I had the means I'd take them tomorrow, unfortunately I don't.
On a different note I talked to work today to let them know that I'll be going on medical EI (which only pays 55% of my wage) and everybody was genuinely happy for me that I was taking the time off to be with my family and be able to take our time with the healing process. Money will be really tight, but you gotta do what you gotta do right :shrug:
Tina and I will be meeting with the girls therapist tomorrow morning. I'm also looking forward to our counselling getting underway, as I'm really concerned the amount of blame Tina is taking on herself. One of the main reasons for my decision to be there for my wife. She is a stay at home mom/wife and I'm quite concerned for her emotional well being. I don't want this grief to turn into depression...
You guys are all awesome :00hour
Thank you so much for all of the prayers and support. You are what makes Madjack's the best forum on the net :0008

Working out the details now with canuck and after they are settled I will start a new thread with details.
Thanks to all
Thanks to all
Instead of Disney, Let's contribute the money to Canuck and let him decide how to spend it. A trip is great, but a month or two or even three free of stress of how to pay the bills is priceless. Give DAD a needed break from one of the stresses this has brought on.
Just my thoughts.
Just my thoughts.
canuck--just got caught up on this-terrible. I and am sure Box&One will agree- we both have in our school adminsitration days dealt with a number of cases like this-just sickening. You have done all the right things--talk about it-dealing with it, etc. I hope everything works out as well as it can. Just give those girls a big hug each day and tell them you love them.. HH anything you need I will help-just let me know.
Thanks guys :0008
I got the ball rolling with counselling today, the wife and I go (separately) next Monday and Tuesday and the girls the week after, due to the therapist being out of town.
I'm in a better place each day, but I'm looking forward to them getting some tools for coping :0074

That's a tough read.I cannot begin to imagine what you are feeling and dealing with right now.
It sure sounds like you are a wonderful dad and doing a great job under some very difficult circumstances.Keep your head up your children and your wife need you right now.Work will be there when things are better at home and you're ready to go back.Family is more important.GL we're thinking about you guys.

I can feel each day getting a little better. I am enjoying being off work. It seems every other day one of the kids will ask if I'm going to work today, and they are so happy when I tell them that I'm not they are so happy. In order to keep life and schedules as normal as possible my wife has been walking the kids to the buss stop (about 1-2 minutes from our house) like she does every day. Yesterday Aliyah asked if I could walk her to the buss stop, made me fell like a million bucks :00hour
I'm getting worried about Kaitlin, every conflict no matter how small results in her crying uncontrollably. I can't wait for counselling to start.
Oh, 1 really fucked up thing that I learned yesterday from the kids therapist. We have limited confidentiality so the therapist won't be asking about details etc. or specifics because the DEFENSE can subpoena her findings and she doesn't want to fuck up the case :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:
What kind of crazy shit is that :shrug:
The scumbag criminals have more rights than their victims :nono:

I just re-read entire thread and wanted to say thank you again. :0008
It sounds so hollow but I don't know what else to say. I've never met any of you but every response has truly been a blessing to me and keeping up on this thread has been very therapeutic to me.
Tina has her first counselling appointment tomorrow, the she is going to share at her ladies bible study tomorrow night. She seems to be doing better and I expect she will be doing better yet after tomorrow.
Thanks again and God Bless you guys :toast:

Hoping u and ur family gets a little better everyday. Continued Prayers from my family to yours:toast:
Praying for you and your family.I have a 5 yeard old and we never go out anywhere in fear of babysitters
Sad. You should try a 16 year old girl in your neighborhood. There are some in mine and at my church who are very intelligent and responsible. You might be able to find one in your area.
