please take a moment to read this

so i do not know any of you all except through this cyber city that we live in (i still am having a hard time with it) but i will share with you all that i am indian mix. i watched this movie on saturday due to family issues that have come up this week. i have never seen this movie. i did remember little bits of when it was being advertised on tv though. this movie hit me hard. you see, it almost replicated my family issues i have been dealing with this week.

i have a nephew that is living with my mother right now and has been for about a year now. he is fifteen now. he is living with my mom because his father is very abusive. especially when he drinks. my nephews name is nevada so i will call him by that. nevada made a hard decision to leave the house that his three sisters and one brother live in. nevada is the oldest. it was a hard decision for him to do this because now there is no one to protect his siblings. if he stayed there he is sure he would have died.by the hands of his father. his father has been in state pens for domestic violence along with other things. he is not a good person. nevada decided to do this in hopes that his mother "my sister" would wake up and leave his father. the begining of this week he was given word that his parents and siblings would be moving back to the reservation in new mexico. he was told by his father over the phone that he would never see his brother and sisters again. wendsday nevada tried to kill himself.

please give a prayer for this boy and his siblings. this is more than a child should have to deal with. so i ask all of you to please just give a few moments of your day in good thoughts toward this boy and his siblings ecause i do believe that we all have the energy to pass to others just by good thought. his name is nevada, his sisters are feather and kameaha, his little brother is bimisi.

i thank you all in advance for doing this. lauren please disregard my grammar on this. i still need to do some more work so i am writing this fast.
peace to everyone, adam.
