I guess I’m the Angel of the family!!! Sad sad news…

Well all was going great until I got a call from my brother (AJ’s - my nephews dad) his mom called and said to come and get my nephew as soon as possible and when my brother got there she was strung out on drugs….so sad and I just cried and told my brother not to yell at her at least she called.

I am still in West Virginia and now we’re trying to decide what to do with my nephew. My brother wants me to take him for a month; I don’t have a sitter and don’t know what i am going to do. My mom really can’t handle him so I guess I am the angel of the family after all. And I love my nephew with all my heart.

Brittany has a chem lab at 12:00 noon and then we are heading back to Ohio. I am going to see my nephew’s mom and give her and hug and let her know that I still love her. It is just so sad and I have sympathy for her because my brother use to be hooked too. Thank God he has 5 years clean. So here is Angela to the rescue again.

I looked at some condo’s yesterday before heading to WV and they look real nice want to purchase one by August!  Just keep our family in your prayers. I’m in the hotel business center writing this; EURO SUITES very nice hotel if I might say so!

Going to find a gift for Brittany’s big sis and then heading out! Have a great day buddies.  I’m leaving out at 5:00 a.m. for a 9:30 a.m. meeting in New York on Friday so just keep me in your prayers and through out it all: STAY POSITIVE!!!

    It’s so awesome that you’re willing and able to look after your nephew. It takes a strong woman to stand up and do that!

    Prayers coming right up. And I agree…at least the woman had the sense to call for help…I’m glad to know the drugs haven’t completely destroyed her, she still has a sense of responsibility of love for her child. I’m glad you’re offering your help and support. You are an Angel indeed. Your name suits you my friend!

    Big HUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS,

    Aw man… what a day for you and your little nephew! That is a bummer. But I’m with you… at least she cared enough to call and want the best situation for the little boy. Man, oh, man. I hope things work out for the better. You sound like your keeping a positive attitude through it all … *high five!*

    Hang in there ma’am…
