Today was harder on me than I'd like to admit

Finally heard from my mom. I didn't talk to her yet... I just barely opened the messages now because it seemed like too much to deal with earlier.

She found my brother. His dad took him & disappeared years ago... Nobody's been able to find either of them ever since. It's a long story.

Well my mom finally found his dad & hunted him down. Discovered that he gave up my brother years ago, right after he disappeared with him. I have the family's info now, I just looked her up on their social media & it's my little brother 😔 I wasn't sure if I believed it but it's him. He's grown so big but I recognize him still. Even if it's kinda difficult to by now.

Then my best friend discovered today that his 1 year old son has leukemia.
I broke down when I got that text because I can't even imagine. I don't have kids but I can't imagine anything worse than to watch your children suffering.

So idk... Just seemed like a lot of emotions today. I don't really know what to do with it yet. Maybe I take on other people's feelings too much.

But on another note, this is my first time drinking these black Modelos 🍻

I am really sorry that your brother was taken and your friends son had leukemia.

That’s a lot to process. Please don’t numb your feeling too much with alcohol and drugs though 💖.

@iamonfire696 just felt like drinking for the night. Maybe not the best thing to help but it's okay I'm not gonna keep drinking still. One night was fine 😌

@ChiefJustWalks I get that, as long as it doesn’t become a habit. Not judging you at all. I am just worried about you 💖 and don’t want you to have to deal with the problems that come with drinking too much. You certainly had some tough news to deal with though so I get that.
