I know there are some who don’t believe in God, god, saints, deities, orisha’s, lwas, or anything else. However, if you do it never hurts to “git right with it.” Reason being, my Dad called me 30 min. ago. He said to sit down. I was. He told me my cousin Peaches had died today! She was eating, got choked, couldn’t dislodge it, was taken to the hospital and, pronounced dead on arrival. [Correction & update: she needed a tracheotomy but because she never went to the hospital she didn’t know she was diabetic. As a result, her heart, which was swollen, stopped beating twice before she was pronounced dead.] I just saw her last month at my Uncle’s funeral! This is too much. Her sister died last year. My aunt has survived both of her children… that’s got to be a parents greatest fear. I should go up to the funeral but, I’m broke. Damn.
