🛍 Apparel & support merchandise Personally have been dealing with the issues surrounding having a loved one in custody for now over seven years , I have dealt with the struggles of my own mental health and all attached, whilst being a mother , while d
ealing with courts , ongoing issues with my partner from the day to day custody life, as well as addressing the department/ corrective services NSW even when the door of communication has been slammed in my face just to force myself to dig deeper and find another way around it. We fight so hard for our loved ones , but we never fight for ourselves , we seem to allow everyone to judge us for staying and/or continuing to support our loved ones whilst they are in custody and never seem to stand for ourselves and to have the right of having the judgment and stigma for us to be stopped. For a long while I have wanted to bring awareness of the judgment and the stigma surrounding staying and supporting a loved one in custody , it being that of such a taboo topic , with almost fear being attached to it, I always thought to myself how can I bring awareness and what can I do and or create to be a conversation starter , to the truth behind what we as a Jail Wife / Husband / Support System truly do go through without glamourizing any of it , and bring awareness to the struggles we face every single day whilst our loved ones are in custody , then it hit me. I have created some stunning designs , to bring awareness and have a conversation starter. Stay strong my loves ,
They cant keep them forever.
