I'm now seventeen years old. My mom died on May 23, 2006, when I was sixteen. She left me, my 4 year old half-sister, and my step-dad, who was diagnosed with wide-spread lung cancer three days after her death. I've blocked out all emotion to this point & have had plenty of breaking up & getting back together with my bf Bobby who I have been with since February 10, 2005. He has helped me so much & he's giving me so much support now.
