Back from hell....

Finally my brother got out from jail...yesterday!!!! He was 10 days!!!! Can you believe it????

Yesterday was an awfully stressful day: my parents at marcial court, me at the (where the prosecutor is), waiting to see if the court decided to see the case yesterday...well, a lot of burocracy almost kept my brother one day more in jail. Fortunately (if we can call it that) my dad's sister (who died at 20...on 1974) was really good friends with a woman who is now a senator, and she helped us out a lot. I don't like the idea of using influences to sort things out, but in this country things don't work well unless you have influences, and she talked to someone who allowed my father to talk to the president of the court, and he (at the last minute) decided to see the case yesterday. So then they faxed the "temporary freedom" paper to where I was, so I could pay the "bail" (do you call it that?? I looked it up in a dictionary), and then they could send another paper to jail so they could release him (like 3 hours later)....it was very very heart-touching to see my brother again, he couldn't stop saying "what a nightmare"....
Then my parents took him to the hospital to check him thoroughly, his eardrum has a hole, and some eye bleeding...at least no internal coagulums or nothing serious, but he is well beaten...

At least the worst is over, now the process continues but my parents are going to hire a really good lawyer (because the one we had for this first part, really sucked, he really didn't care for my brother!!), and this senator told my mom that there's no way my brother will go to jail again....she's going to help us as much as she can (because as you know, legislative and judicial power can't interfere with each other)...and she's really FURIOUS with what the police did to my brother....I hope there can be something done!!!!! Well, and my mom even contacted a minister!!! who she knew from her university (see, this is a small country!!!), and she was also worried, I think she talked to someone in court also LOL!!!!!

Well, E and I have been REALLY stressed, it has been very difficult times for my family, specially my mom, so I hope things can now get back to normal, and my brother can continue his life without major traumas, because he's really affected.....

On the TTC news, I'm a little worried because we haven't been much in the mood really, with all this happening, and fertile days are just around the corner!! (CD 12) I hope God can give us a hand and allow us to conceive even with the odds turned against us LOL....well, we talked last night about this (with E) and decided to relax a little more with this, in fact, I won't take my temps anymore, it drives me crazy!! So try to have a good time, and not compare ourselves so much with our friends who have a lot of babies...I hope we suceed!!!!!

I will check out other blogs now, to catch up!!!

I'm glad your brother got out okay and I hope something can be done to bring justice to those who mistreated him. I would like to think that nothing like that could happen in this country (although I may be wrong on that point!). Best luck for this month!

I have been thinking of you and your brother...thank god he got out! Now all will be okay.

And bail is the right word! I wish I could speak another language as well as you speak English...

Good luck on the baby front! Get in the mood with some candles, that always works for me. Even if we were in a dirt box, if my husband lit a candle, I would be in the mood!
