- About Me:
- I am a 35yr old single mom. I'm currently in school studying to be an intervention specialist for people with chemical dependency.
- About my Loss:
- I was 16 and my sister was 15. We played doubles tennis together in high school. We had to practice 1 day a week by ourself. We changed days that week because I was boy crazy and had a secrete date. Greg wanted to kill me not her but she was the one at home. I feel so guilty. Still all the years later I hear his words in court that it should have been "Ape" which is my nickname and he's right. When I got home from practice Ange was on the ground with her pants torn off. God, there was blood everywhere. Her bloody hand prints lined the walls. He had sodomized her, so horribly that her anus was ripped into her vagina. HE had beat her to the point that her nose was on the other side of her face. I still frantically did CPR. She was gone there was no doubt in that but I just couldn't accept that. The neighbor had called the police something I hadn't even thought of in my madness. Now, almost 25 year later he is coming up for parole. It happend April 18,1991. My nightmares are just as bad now as they were then. I know that if he gets out he will do it again, so all I can do is pray.

It has been a long time since I saw you, a very long time actually. You used to come to me but you don't anymore. It's hard to think that I could ever forget the blood stained walls I came home to that day. You were my very best friend, my sister. He took you from me yet in court he said he thought I was the one he would find there. I live with that everyday. He came in the house that day thinking you would be at tennis and I would be home but we traded days so that I could go out on a "secret"… Continue

LESBIAN ..GAY 2 SPIRITED loss and grief
Anyone who has lost their gay partner..soon finds that there may be a few things that are different...such as sorting through things and feeling like an intruder because it is also family stuff etcSee More
Assumptions
An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true. Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions. This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
