My attorney called today wanting to know if I wanted her to be present at "the meeting".

She said "I am going to be honest with you.  This case really ticks me off and having me there may be more harm than good.  I will feel like I need to speak for you and I could fly off the handle."

She said, "I think you will do well.  I think you just need to speak your heart and ask your questions.  Be prepared for no answers, but keep asking the questions."

She asked me to call her the morning after and let her know how it goes.  She also told me there are a lot of people "talking" about it in the system.

God...thanks for making N my attorney.  Thanks for her honesty and encouragement.  Again...you knew exactly what I needed.
