Well... the last few days have been really tough for me & my family...

In the early morning of Friday 21st March, we received the news that my 18 year old brother Neil, was in hospital following consuming a large quantity of cocaine & beer together at a friends party. He was admitted to the hospital at 1:33am, but died at 3:35am resulting from Heart Faliure. I'm finding it really hard to cope with his loss... also my 11 year old brother, Alan, is heartbroken... but luckily, we have managed to comfort each other for the time being. School has said that both of us can stay home because the grief was making both of us unable to do our work properly without bursting into tears... I will miss you bro... may the heavens be kind to you & one day, may me & Alan be able to see you again crying

Friday 21st March was also a day of joy, whilst my Mum was at the hospital, she decided to have a checkup. She found out that she was pregnant! This made us all have an amount of joy in us following Neil's death. We found out yesterday (22nd March) that she is gonna have a baby girl... I'M GONNA HAVE A BABY SISTER! SQEEEEEE! whee Not only that, but I also get to name her, which is awesome.

I would also like to personally thank anyone here on Gaia who has helped me get through this tough time for my family, Thank You All.
