The cousin who shot me in the head.

Describe a family member.

Growing up, when I was very young. He was my best friend. We used to do everything together. Watch movies together, go on hikes together, we used to share our deepest secrets with each other. He also got me in trouble a lot. We used to steal mail, steal from stores, start fires, and also start more fires.

Until, that dreaded day. It was a cold windy night. He said, “Point the gun at my head and press the trigger.” I couldn’t do it, so he took the gun away from me and pointed the gun at my head and it went off. We thought the gun was not loaded.

In conclusion- this man is a monster. He never said he was sorry for what he did to me or gave me any money for my pain and suffering. Like I said in another post, he got away with the whole thing. They let him off the hook. I still cannot believe he just got away with something so awful that affects me so profoundly. Thank you for reading.

      1. I’m sorry for not being able to understand your pain as I haven’t been through it but I can imagine that it wouldn’t have been easy at all… Please take care of yourself. I think wordpress is a great place to express your emotions. Remaining positive is the best way. The fact that you’ve gone through life this far since 1988 is truly amazing.
        I haven’t read that much of your blog to understand how you’ve coped with this trauma but I will try to read as much as I can and support you as much as possible 🩷

      3. Your welcome! And thank you! I’m so glad to hear that. It’s difficult to find the right words to say to someone when you haven’t been through their pain but I tried my best. Take care. ✨

  1. The strength and courage it takes to go through something so harrowing is profound. Your current and future successes, big and small are all because you got through that awful experience.
