I am the mother of a son that tragically died in a car accident. He was eleven years old. I feel uniquely qualified to write a book about this loss.
My loss turned incredibly worse when I was informed that my husband was driving the car my two children were in, and alcohol was involved. I was devastated, shocked and confused. I had no idea he had taken them in the car when he was not only drunk...he was wasted.
I found myself slowly moving through the four phases of grief without knowledge of the importance of each phase. I had no idea how to deal with grief of that it could rear its ugly head twenty years later .
With a lot of help, I finally figured out that my future could give me a pleasant life even if the pain was tattooed forever on my heart.
I have self-published my book on amazone, amazon and I encourage u to read my story and see how I managed depression so black I was afraid of LIFE. It is available now. It is called Eleven To Heaven

This is a story about a friend who asked a friend for a ride to the church , food pantry. The driver of the friend receiving assistance , who is also related to the director of the food pantry had to walk out due to discrimination. The director went out of bounds, door rude actions forcing the driver to not only walk out and not be able to help friend stock up on food. But also proceeds to tell friend , that driver is not allowed to come back. Then the driver calls the church to meld this discrimination and they tell driver that food pantry is separate from church. So driver asked what to do about reporting such a matter and church secretary says Pastor will be in contact with driver. The director of food pantry is only acting this way towards driver because it is her ex-daughter in-law . The friend and driver thought this would make a great toon because it shows the lack of care in the church, as well as discrimination amongst a family.

Hello,

My name is Claudia I am a direct descendant of the Clotilda Africans. The last known slave ship that illegally carried slaves to Mobile, Alabama in 1860.

In 1860 slavery was abolished. Due to a bet of say meer of a challenge Timothy Meaher a rich Planation owner placed wagered 110 slaves were transported and smuggled to Mobile Bay.

The story sounds unreal but it is real...and I am honored to be part of such history.





Recently wreckage of the ship is believed to be found.
