Hi everyone. My husband and I got back a few weeks ago from our trip to Seattle. My sis had a beautiful wedding. But our trip was highly stressful to the say the least. We all feel like we''ve been on an emotional roller coaster. Some terrible things happened that is really testing the strength of our family. My dear brother was arrested on drug related charges. We are so devastated. We''ve moved on from the anger. Thankfully he is safe and we are working towards resolving this whole mess. Please put him in your prayers. It never crossed my mind that he could ever be in this situation. Please, all of you be very mindful of your love ones and also question any suspicious behavior and always be mindful of the type of company they keep. I never spent a second wondering if he could be doing anything that could put him in any sort of danger, and I wish I was more watchful, a bit more suspicious and protective of him so that I could see the signs for what they were. Believe me there are signs but I only realized them for what they were in hindsight. I was so naive that things like this just doesn''t happen to people like us. We are normal people, a bit of a dysfunctional family but he''s a good kid. I just wasn''t really mindful of his behavior, activites, and his friends. I don''t mean to preach at all, but just be aware it could happen to someone you love. I just wanted to throw it out there and hope it makes a tiny bit of difference for someone.
