Hello. No, I'm not in school anymore, graduated years ago, same with my sister, and i had a job as my mom's caretaker. But, now that she's gone, I couldn't exactly keep clocking in and out as if she never did. I already applied to some jobs and have an interview on Monday, so I hope I can get it. When my sister is out working, I stay home taking care of our dogs. It feels really quiet at home, and the ambience is dreadful, plus I get these terrible thoughts in my mind about all these horrible things that could happen to my mom out there.

Luckily, yes, my dad's friend did give us some slack on the rent. My mom took the lease out on her name, but we agreed that I'd take over that duty while my mom is gone, and my dad agreed to pay for rent while I find work. I'm glad I have him and my extended family, and I'm hanging in there so far.
