You dealt with me in the most catastrophic ways… Too many adversities misfortunes and the worst of it you stole my own flesh and blood leaving me in the most devastating, miserable and confused state that could never have imagined.

Truly, appreciate all the good people you made me cross paths with (my family, friends, strangers turned friends and my online fam). I cannot begin to list names cos it is endless but I want y’al to know that I will forever remain thankful for the incredible level of love and support showered upon me and my family in our most difficult times.

I pray that God in His infinite mercy and goodness will bless us all and shield us under His constant love. Afflictions shall never rise in our homes in Jesus name.”
