I live in Ft. Lauderdale but I travel from Miami to WPB. BTW I just wanted to say thank you to all the people that wrote to me. You all are so sweet and cool. I really appreciate the kind words you sent me. I am actually feeling a little better. It's just that never in my wildest imagination did I think I would be a victim of a crime like that. This guy was so bold and it happened to fast. I mean I stood there with my mouth opened while this guy ran off lauging. Can you believe he turned to me and laughed??! When I went to call 911 I dialed it wrong. I was just so in shock. It was a store I shop at often and I know the people and I was on my way to the car when it happened. I have scratches on my arm where he snatched the bag. I can never return to that store ever again because I know that I will never feel safe. I am not even going to carry a purse anymore. I just can't believe this. I gave the cops the description and there was a bounty hunter who arrived shortly after who went around looking for either the guy or my bag. I am planning on calling every day to see if any developments happen. What's bad is that on january 27th I started Richard Simmons Food Mover program and have lost 13lbs and my food mover system was in my bag. It has really helped me alot with my weight loss and that's gone too. I have to replace medical insurance cards, grocery cards and get another license. Deep down inside I feel that there is going to be a good resolution to all of this. I signed the report to let the cps know that I plan on filing charges if he is caught because I am traumatized by this bastard's actions. Again thank you all so much for your emails. It's such a refreshing thing to see such a tight knit community. I appreciate it all from the bottom of my heart.
With all of my love (really),
Shai Jones
