Shattering

Increasing madness. Ex service user smashed his bedroom window with his guitar...I barricaded myself in the bedroom. A policeman heard ex service user ranting and saw the glass....Ex service user taken away by the police. I'm to give a statement, no idea what's next.

5:54pm
The police are keeping him in. The policeman said, they will phone tomorrow and ask if we are willing to have him back.

Really, my gut feeling is to say no. We gave him every chance to seek help, and to turn around his seething rage. He didn't take that path. So, enough now.

Our house is at peace, but the feeling is of bereavement. So heavy, so so sad.
