When did I first put pen to paper? When did I first begin to write about my life? I must been when I was 10, when everything changed. Writing the prior three years was simple to me now, for the memories were always with me. My family's ghosts haunted me, Thom's most of all. Is it not when you look back you see the mistakes ou made when you knew no better? Even now if I had the chance, I would change nopthing. Yes Nothing. Many would never understand this, the things I have lived through are not something most could possibly imagine nore think of living through. The last 6 years of my life I was not going write, for in truth it began as sort of a diary. But this now I write for DamionAnte for he was the one who persuaded me, he wished otehrs to know my story. I still and have always wondered why, who would care about me? I am a no one, though daily I am told otherwise by those that love me. Through it all never doudt that I was loved and loved in turn, weither or not their was arms to hold me. I dedicate this to my family, my dearest step sister Nilec, her husband James and their son Jay. Please please my dearest sister help my love Damion care for the son I leave behind...
