Ty guys, its ten fold times tougher for my sis n mom to cope w this. I started working at the school here in my village when the kid was a freshman. so i got used to seeing the kid come to school every morning, always keepin an eye out for him, urging him to do good in school-listeneing to teachers-principal. He gave me good memories-him playing high school basketball -which i cud not do when i was in school. damn its tough to cope w this AGAIN, my uncle killed himself about 13 yrs ago, now we gotu go thru this all over again. LOVE ur family-even tho some may be dickheads to u, love em while u can. <S> ALL!!
