Wednesday I did much better emotionally. It hurts losing family members. I only cried once and not for too long.

September 2020, I lost a cousin to cancer and December 2020 my mother lost her sister to heart disease. My momma had a high school classmate put together a slide show for my auntie’s funeral. The classmate passed away from an autoimmune disease two weeks after my auntie.

March 2nd 2021, we lost my grandpa’s sister to COVID-19. Since my health took a turn, I stopped running seven years ago.

I now walk and run [emoji2094] in remembrance of all my relations that are gone as a result of autoimmune diseases.

I walk and run [emoji2094] to bring awareness of all BIPOC with autoimmune diseases and rare diseases.

I walk and run in awareness of Missing Murdered and Indigenous People.
