That is the day my son arrived back at Coleman. He has now been incarerated for 4 years. November 22 is the date they took him. Like you George it is a first time offender for a non violent crime. Your blog has done two things for me. It let's me know that there is hope. Hope that as much as they try the FBOP does not break every man's spirit. That spirit of humanity. That spirit of Love for fellow humans. I write to my son, talk to him and even write other inmates when he has let me know that they are down. When I write to them, I try for just a moment to bring them out of the cage they are in. I talk about the fall colors, the smell of autumn. What your blog does also is bring me into your world. The world of inhumanity. The world of senselessness confinement. I continue to pray for all federal prisoners, because there is no parole. I had the opportunity to shake your hand while visiting in October, but instead I chose a hug, why? So that you got a chance of a human touch. God Bless you George and prayers go up so that somehow, someway our government will wake up and give you a chance to be out here again. Christine in Iowa I started reading this blog 30 months ago.
