My biggest challenge is being disabled after being shot in the head. This challenge will follow me for my whole life. Using my non-dominant arm for everything is hard. I am afraid my right arm will give out one of these days because I use it for everything. My dominant left arm is paralyzed and my left leg is gimpy. Thank goodness I can walk, which is a plus.
Getting the cousin who shot me in the head to take responsibility for what he did is hard too because he is a coward. He is in hiding and my family protects him, which is crazy. They should want us to resolve the issues we have, so we can all go on living, but they never tell me where he is. I am growing angry at my family for this because they could’ve at least put him in jail or made him pay me money, but they didn’t do anything and they just left me to survive on my own, which I think he should at least help me, but he doesn’t do anything. Here it is 37 years since the injury took place and still nothing. My family forgot about me. No happy new Years, nothing. So sad, but true. It is true, I need closure. So to everyone who is reading this Happy New Year and I hope this New Year is great for everyone. Thank you for reading.

It is sad to hear that your family left you to survive on your own? Like did they not support you or care for you at all? Apart from your sister which you do mention spends time with you. But did your family just leave you as you grew older?

Yes my family is no where to be found. They did offer me to go over my big sisters house, but i need to work because of the car I drive and a number of bills. So they are not completely out of my life, but they don’t play a part in my life anymore. It is a lot of animosity over my mom not getting me justice for being shot in the head.

I see… That is difficult not having family support. It is really wrong what your family did, but surely there must be more to their story as to why your mum has been so adamant in not getting you justice. Do you reckon they might be something they not telling you?

Yes, she kept saying that she could not get me justice because the cousin and his family didn’t have any money, but she could have put him in prison. I would have felt a lot better then. At least I got justice, but no she didn’t. She is a lousy mom.
