2.My mom's cousin, Brenda, is a very...well you just don't want to mess with her. If you get to really know her she can be nice, but you should probably be careful what you say. She has been in and out of jail, she has dealt drugs, we think she is dealing drugs presently but we have no proof, she smokes, and has four kids, with I think different fathers, outside of marriage. She always complains that she wishes she was black, which I have no problem with, but she is a bit obsessed about it. She is only happy with the 'bad boys'. She once dated a really nice and good guy, but she didn't like him. She didn't really elaborate, but it's probablly because he was a 'good boy'. Her two oldest daughters dress a lot older than they should if you know what I mean. I'm not sure about the youngest daughter, but my cousin and her used to play together all the time but not so much lately. Her oldest, is a boy named Leico(I think he is 16) who I never got along with because he was just mean and rude. He once wanted to be a priest, but this was before his mother got out of jail and reentered his life. Before this his grandmother (my great aunt Bev, Brenda's mom) was taking care of him and his sisters. When Brenda got out of jail she went to live with them in the already tiny house which is where they all are now. Leico follows very closely in his mom's steps. He hasn't been to Juvi (yet), but he has been suspended severel times, once for when a teacher took him out into the hall after he back mouthed him, then after the teacher was done talking to him, he peed on the lockers. He smokes especially on the bus which really concerns me because A. He is smoking and killing himself B. Second hand smoke harm to the other kids C. My 13 year cousin with Asthma is on that bus. Whenever he has gotten in trouble his mom has stepped in and so the school and bus driver don't really do anything any more because they are afraid of the both. Recently Brenda's brother died in a motercycle accident, this has probably hardened their hearts even more to God. This was actually a bit good in a way, because she and her other brother Billy who is presently in jail for identity theft, were able to patch up their very broken realationship. Billy says he is a Christian, but some things put that to question for us, but we don't know his heart, only God does. So pray for Brenda and her family to be open to Jesus and hopefully find him. For Billy to hopefully be truely saved and stay strong in his faith. Also for Bev to stay strong in her faith. We are not completely sure if she is born again, but just pray for her.
3. My dad has been sick for the past week, my 6 yr. old sister has fluid in her ears, and my Autistic sister is regressing is her behavior. If the fluid does not dry up soon, she will need to get tubes in her ears. My Autistic sister used to be doing really well, but since the school took away her occupational therpy, she has been regressing. She also gets seizures right when we think "It's been a long time since she had one. Maybe she's healed." So pray that my dad gets healthy, the fluid drys out of my sister's ears, and my Autistic sister does not get any more seizures or regress any longer.
