Absence

[Thumpalumpacus]

Thanks all.  Yeah these last few months have been some of the toughest.  Step father's conviction, loss of my business and lawsuit causing sever financial burden and now this.  As they say, "This too shall pass".  one thing I know is I've endured far worse and come out better on the other side.  That's the message I keep pressing to everyone.  My sister is really struggling.  Those boys were her world.  She feels totally lost.  She's confused, wounded and honestly wants to die.  It's hard to watch and difficult to find the right things to say.  It's going to be a long process.

Sorry I wasn't able to address this last night, my phone was not my friend, so here goes --

Please make sure that you've got adequate stress relief for yourself. Emotional trauma has a bad way of showing up in your health profile. And as much as possible, make sure you're eating well, sleeping well, and getting some exercise.

Take care of yourself, brotha. You need it. You gotta be there if you want to be there for her.
