Learning to Live Again
Have you ever felt like never fit in with your family or peers ?? Ever since I can remember I had never felt like I belonged. I always felt different and by the time I was ten years old I had learned that my family wasn’t what they seemed. I had learned that my parents were my grandparents, my brother and sisters were were really my aunts and uncle. I remember as if it were yesterday, I can’t remember what exactly was said about my mom, I just knew her by her name and then was told that she was really my mom. Now here I am only ten years old and I had witnessed this woman yell and fight with whom at the time I knew as my mom. She then slapped her demanding that I was going to live with her. I was very scared and confused as I didn’t want to leave the only home I had known for ten years of my life.

UNSTOPPABLE
It was October, Halloween, 2013, when Roy had been putting up lights and a few motion lights on his wife’s flower shop. He was standing at the top of the ladder, stretching out a bit too far when he took a very long hard fall to the concrete ground. Everyone had heard the loud noise but didn’t hear anything from him. They all assumed he was fine. Roy had cracked his head open, busted his shoulder and collar bone along with breaking other bones in his body. He had stood up as if nothing happened and went on to put his tools away. Some time had passed and his wife decided to go check on him as they had plans for the night. When she walked out to find him she screamed for help and call for an ambulance. He was bleeeding severely and wasn’t aware of what was going on. Moments later, he was being rushed to the nearby hospital. Which wasn’t long after that he was sent to another hospital. As his family arrived at the hospital they awaited for news. It was serious and the doctors had informed his wife to call everyone because they didn’t know how much time he’d have left. They had gave him a 5 percent chance of living and then if he did survive they weren’t sure how the outcome would be. So with that, his wife called everyone they knew to let them know what happened to Roy.
