Hello and Welcome.

Your in-laws don't seem like the type of people you want in your life anyway. I hope you have family and/or friends that do support you. So sorry you had to go through all of that.

I hope you find the forum to be helpful and supportive.
 
Welcome to the forum, what a brave and courageous person you are , I'm sorry for your trauma, as long as you believe in yourself and know what happened that night then that's ok, the in laws are obviously grieving for their son and are looking at someone or something to blame, it's probably there way of dealing with it. There obviously looking at someone to vent there anger, it's a shame they feel this way and haven't been able to support you, however you really don't need them blaming you to cause you more grief than you have already suffered. I hope your recover and recieve positive and professional support . I personally think you are amazing to have gone through all of that and have shared it with us. This is an excellent forum and I really and truly wish you all the best , I'm positive you will recieve lots of support here x good luck and chin up and keep smiling x
 
Welcome, @Theresa1122 . There aren't really words for this, but I am so sorry for...
Thank you, Greenleaf! Yes, there was a complete investigation and they tried to make up any story they could to try to blame me - maybe I did it, maybe I was cheating and someone shot me to make it look good and then shot him, etc. The investigators finally just told them that all the evidence was there proving that he shot the gun and nobody else. There was ballistics to make sure they were the same slugs he fired that came out of his shotgun, etc. I was interviewed several times, of course, and everything I remembered - which was pretty etched into my mind - was accurate and matched with the evidence inside and outside the home (I was still in the hospital during most of the investigation). Anyway, I feel bad for them, but I'm angry with them too. It's confusing. I feel the same way about him. He wasn't abusive and I loved him. I still love him and miss him, but at the same time, I'm angry with him and I hate him and I hate what he has and continues to put me through.

Anyway, I am looking forward to my first equine session. I will be sure to write afterwards to let you know how it went.

Thank you so much for the warm welcome. :-)
 
Welcome to the site, funny, I've just been writing about a similar situation I experienced some 30...
I'm sorry you also experienced this. It's amazing to find someone that has gone through this like have. I think you're the first one I've talked to, in fact. I'm going to your page to read your story. Thank you for the welcome. :-)

I tried to read your profile, but can't. It gives me a message that I'm not allowed into your profile. I'm sorry for what you went through. Glad to find a fellow survivor!
 
My story is in my trauma diary "Hell, Once Again". the big difference between your incedent and mine is that in mine, nobody got shot, but if you know the person like I knew him, the threat was real, he was quit capable of doing it. Several weeks after the incident and after getting some help, he came to me and apologized for it and confessed that because I always showed him respect is what stopped him from pulling the trigger.
