Dear Rita,
Hi Rita, how are you? I hope great. I received your comments last night and it was great to hear from you. Yes, I did get the $20, my brother did send it to me. Thank you very much, I used it all to buy $20 worth of phone time so I can call my parents at any time. My brother promised to send it when he gets it so this is fine. Thank you Rita. You can read how bad my visit was, I wrote a blog about how SCI Dallas refused my dying mother entry to visit me. I am just so angry and sick over this. I wrote an article about it so please read it when you can. Yes, you have told me you are a painter. I was an okay painter but nothing special. As for me and my brother, we are fighting a lot. But we are brothers and eventually will get past it. He thinks the world is all about him but he doesn't see that everyone else has tough problems too and he is becoming a selfish person. I do not know why but we were once so very close. Now we just drifted I guess. But we will resume talking again soon. He apologized to me but I will wait a few more days before I write to him again. I still write to his daughter, baby lucy who tells me she is not a baby anymore, she says, uncle Robby, I'm 5 now, I'm a big girl now. Such an adorable little child.
Sadly no, I do not hear from my daughter. I asked a friend to text her and tell her if she wants to see her grandparents before they die then she better start planning it but no response from her. I don't think she cared because she doesn't really know them, she doesn't really know me either so why be bothered with me I guess. Maybe one day she will wake up and return to my life. But I am afraid that if she doesn't wake her butt up soon, she will regret not ever really knowing her grandparents. My dad looks so bad, the cancer is destroying his body.
Wow, George is 68 now, he has already lived 8 years longer that my parents who are both 60. Their doctors say they won't live to see the end of the year. I do not deal with death well. And this is when families turn into vultures and turn on each other. When my grandmom died, she was the glue that held our family together. When she died, we fell apart. I was given $5,000 from her and it was invested for me in 2006, I was supposed to get the money in 10 years, well someone took it and I never receive her dime. When someone dies, seems like all anyone cares about is money. I was so happy to see my dad and all he wanted to talk about is how to buy me a new tv before he dies. My tv blew up, it just stopped working and they charge us $260 for a small tv, so dad offered to buy me a new one. I would have had to save my money for about 2 years before I could have afforded to buy a new one. So I was very grateful for this but it amazed me that dad was only concerned about me.
My brother is supposed to be moving and I do not know if we will get along so it would be better if you sent the money to my friend Melanie. I will give you her e-mail and let her know that you will be sending her a message so she can give you her address, Okay. Her e-mail is: m1m347@gmail.com.
I will tell her that she needs to give you her home address to send the money to, okay. Thank you always Rita. If it ever becomes a problem for you, I do not ever want to be a burden for you. If it ever hurts you in any way to send this then please don't.
I am glad you like the website: fossilsandfeathers.org
Please share it with your friends, we would like all people to read it. It's people like you and my friends Melanie and JC who remind me that I must keep my faith in people. The good that you's have shown me, this reminds me daily. I did get my job back, same one I had before I went to the hole. I only make $20 a month but this is better than making nothing. So I am happy but also because I get to go see the puppy dogs again every morning on my way to work.
But I really have so much to do today so I must go. Take very good care of yourself, send Melanie an e-mail, tell your friends about the new the site and I hope you are having a wonderful day Rita. Maybe you get to spend time with your family today. I hope so, family is everything. Take very good care of yourself and live each day to the best of your ability. Thank you for your kindness and friendship. God Bless Amica Mia. Ciao.
