I think I have a girl crush on you Katie.... Not only for your wise and well written posts, but for your persistence.... I have been saying for months I would love Janine in the courtroom, so she could get a better feel of her, although she will probably have to watch again on YouTube as it sounds like y'all are far away from Jodi, I also bet the family would love to have her there!! You rock my friend!!
Thinking of you as you travel to LA and hope for a safe trip. Also sending hugs and know how difficult it must be for you to revisit that time in your life.. Did the insurance company ever pay up? Will your dad be there also?Someone else posted that they knew your sister is proud of you... I also think that, she will be with you every step of the way, look for signs of that....you will definitely be guided by her spirit!
I don't know you, but it's strange it feels like I do....as you said this connection that we feel on this board makes us heal and feel like we are contributing!
Much luck and try to have some fun in sunny LA...
