breaking the hush

My friend died today ~ you killed him. You didn’t pull a trigger or cut him up, but you killed him the same. You wanted your “punishment” and your $300 a day, all while keeping him from his chemo! What? You didn’t want to pay the cost of the treatment? Well who has paid the ultimate cost now? Was his life worth it? Your 98% convictions and $300 a day – was it? You cry “JUSTICE!” Well, where is HIS justice? Who gets put on trial for HIS death? Where is HIS victim impact statement? I hope you’re happy! I hope you spend that money wisely- we know you didn’t spend it on him! Keeping him locked up the last four months of his life for what? A probation revocation? Missing a few classes and being behind on payments? Take this as a lesson-if you pick someone up from a hospital they probably need to be in the hospital- shame on you for cutting his life short- Shame on you!

Ben, I won’t forget our last conversation and I will NEVER take for granted the people God has put in my life! You’re right, I am blessed!

Breaking the Hush,
