About Me:
I am a 35yr old single mom. I'm currently in school studying to be an intervention specialist for people with chemical dependency.
About my Loss:
I was 16 and my sister was 15. We played doubles tennis together in high school. We had to practice 1 day a week by ourself. We changed days that week because I was boy crazy and had a secrete date. Greg wanted to kill me not her but she was the one at home. I feel so guilty. Still all the years later I hear his words in court that it should have been "Ape" which is my nickname and he's right. When I got home from practice Ange was on the ground with her pants torn off. God, there was blood everywhere. Her bloody hand prints lined the walls. He had sodomized her, so horribly that her anus was ripped into her vagina. HE had beat her to the point that her nose was on the other side of her face. I still frantically did CPR. She was gone there was no doubt in that but I just couldn't accept that. The neighbor had called the police something I hadn't even thought of in my madness. Now, almost 25 year later he is coming up for parole. It happend April 18,1991. My nightmares are just as bad now as they were then. I know that if he gets out he will do it again, so all I can do is pray.

It has been a long time since I saw you, a very long time actually. You used to come to me but you don't anymore. It's hard to think that I could ever forget the blood stained walls I came home to that day. You were my very best friend, my sister. He took you from me yet in court he said he thought I was the one he would find there. I live with that everyday. He came in the house that day thinking you would be at tennis and I would be home but we traded days so that I could go out on a "secret"… Continue

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
