I was debating on whether or not to write anything on my blog about my cousin, but she is really the only thing that has been on my mind lately.
My cousin Takiyah and her fiance were hit by a drunk drive on Saturday. She is now able to breath on her own but she has severe brain and organ damage. The doctors are unsure of how and if she will recover and when they can operate on her organs because she is so weak at the moment.
I just saw Takiyah a year ago and we have been responding back and forth on wedding decisions (it was to be this summer) and the flavor of Cold Stone Creamery ice cream we were going to share when I came.
Man...it hurts and it is hard to explain the emotions I feel for her, her family, and fiance. As I was talking to my girlfriend, who took me in one night, we discussed how everyone grieves differently. How moments like these put life into perspective and really make us grateful for what we have. Worries and issues of my daily life seem absolutely trivial now. All that I can think of is life. Living life, breathing, and loving. Send your prayers and positive thoughts to Takiyah. And please do not worry or think about me. Send it ALL to her because shes the life we gotta focus on right now. *Smooches and love with kisses and hugs*
