[  Currently: Reading Nightmares and Dreamscapes by Stephen King ]

Apparently, most of my cousins seem to be contemplating suicide for another one of my cousins admitted to thinking about it. He stated that the main reason was that his mother did not treat him with any respect, humiliating and demeaning him constantly. Now, I have seen how his mom treated him and I always thought that they had a more stable relationship than what he revealed. Granted, they have their share of rough spots, but never in my imagination would it have occurred to me that their relationship was such tenuously strained. What worse is that his mom does not want to participate in his therapy sessions, citing that she has to work and keep her job. Furthermore, it seems as though my parents saw this coming and I didn't, suggesting that their were subtle signs that even I couldn't see. I wonder how his brother is taking this...

In other news, my aunt is in the hospital due to sickness and complications due to asthma.

Icing on the cake, one of my cousins is about to go to jail, and another is homeless somewhat without a job and with his wife.

Incidentally and unrelated to above, I have resumed writingagain to ease the ennui that I have during the day.

Okay, so about two weeks ago, I found out my sister was pregnant. This is pretty good, for I always thought she would die without children since she is so...independent. Not sure if its a boy or a girl, so I will probably ask later when she comes this October. And this got me to thinking, what if I'm not a good uncle? I mean, I can be a bit stubborn with my own cousins and I'm not good at sports or anything. The only thing that I can really do is teach things, but I don't really see how that is effective. So, I ask the people of BC, will I be a good uncle? Just post a response and I'll read it and stuff.
