One year later

Yah
The tour ended in mid July 2024, and another started in September to December.
We spent Sen's 24th birthday on tour, it was a good time, both tours ended in Louisiana, and we had a after-party at the Center.
Of course the crew flew out. It was nice time overall. Dis dumb nigga Smooth showed up, with the bitch Diva, that Sen used to mess with.
It ended in Nier whooping Smooth's ass, and the girls reading "Diva" for filth, embarrassed her ass, bitch ran up out of there like a cheetah.
We laughed our asses off and kept the party going.

It's been almost 2 years since my husband and I met Yah, Sen and the rest of the family, and it has truly been a blessing.
When my husband was diagnosed with cancer it hit us hard.
We were so lost, hurt would be a understatement. Devastation, and ruin is where we were, until we decided to hire a home care nurse.
When she showed up, something deep down inside said, we were going to be ok.
I just prayed that the feeling was right.
Her and her family came in and instantly became our family as well.
They showed us kindness, respect, and love genuinely.
When my husband found out that her husband was a rapper and artist he went crazy.
He loved his music instantly, becoming a huge fan.
They have been Soo good to us, better than we could have imagined or asked for.
When Jason was diagnosed they told us we wouldn't be able to have kids and that he was expected to live another 6 months to a year, but as my girl Yah says "God has the last say so".
Now here we are 2 1/2 years later still here, thriving. We gained a beautiful god daughter Treme' who's almost 2.
Yah mentioned a retreat for my husband last year, and after 9 months of being on the waiting list we finally attended.
We have done 2 trips and my husband is thriving.
We purposely waited to go back and see his doctor, not even telling her about the retreat.
She was baffled at his remarkable turn around.
We will be going back for our third trip next month and we are Soo grateful.
When Yah and her husband first came to our home, Sen fell in love with the property.
We agreed that if Jason were to pass they would buy the property for 2 million and I could stay as long as I wanted.
The house is worth way more than the asking price but money is no issue if anything should ever happen I would never worry or want for anything.
My husband wanted it that way long before he ever got sick.
He was fine with the deal because he knows I'm just going to travel the world, because we always planned on doing so.

It's been a year since my wife and I reconnected. I'm Soo thankful.
God is good because when I think back over my life and how everything just fell apart, I know that it was nothing but his grace and mercy that kept me.
My wife and I met young and fell in love.
We both had our issues but we were still thriving.
Life was good especially once I came home from Navy. I was able to get us a home.
I married her, and a few years down the line we had our daughter. She was such a bright light in both our lives.
Fatima.
She was beautiful, smart, sassy, and destined for greatness, you could just see it on her.
A few years before she passed both my wife, and I mental health started to slip, but we got back on the meds and straightened it out.
The day of her cheer competition, my mother in law came to pick her up. I remember her being so excited, but sad that we couldn't make it, because of work.
She hugged me tight. That's ok old man y'all better come to the next one she said playfully.
I love y'all! she yelled out the window riding off.
They got into a car accident in the 96 freeway. They both died instantly from the impact.
I thank God for that now, looking back because they didn't suffer.
After that, we tried to keep it together but just couldn't we were like shells of ourselves, everyday getting harder and harder to cope with.
One day I just stopped.
Stopped talking, taking the meds, going to work, coming home.
Everything just stopped, and before I knew it I was Soo far gone, so far from base, from my wife, and from home.
I ended up in the streets, just doing God knows what.
Mind just gone.
I was with some guys, I met roun' the way. I stayed with them, started doin drugs to keep me numb, robbing and stealing with them, and it caught up with me.
We'd already robbed this house once. Some people were gradually moving in, but not staying, so we went in, and took their goods.
A few months later, mike wants to go back.
It was late, and we were going in through the back door, when I felt something hot hit, and pierce through my collar bone.
I cried out in pain, trying to move from the window in case they shot again.
We scrambled, and somehow I ended up at the hospital. I told them I didn't know what happened, but that I was struggling with declining mental health and drugs.
They helped me get into a program and back on my proper dosage of medication.
A few days later 2 young guys came into my hospital room, quietly confronted me about my actions, and I quietly confessed.
Knowing death could still be a consequence of my actions.
They made a phone call stepping out in the hallway. I knew the that whoever sent them had connections.
The lighter guy came back and said, the people I robbed decided to give me some grace, thank God.
Said it was a young lady who shot me and that she would want me to get help, and that I better finish the program, or they would come back around for me.
I agreed not out of fear, but because it was the right thing to do, and if me getting my life back together was all she asked, to atone for my wrong doing, I would do it.
For her, for me, for my wife, and my beautiful daughter.
Her and her husband came to visit me in rehab and it was a blessing.
Yah is a beautiful soul, and God gave her a man, that would be able to cover and compliment her.
Little did I know, that in the midst of all this, my wife had been struggling, and ended up help and Yah was her nurse.
Who would've thought.
We reunited on Sen's tour and we've been reconnected since.
The night everything unfolded, Yah said something that will stick with me the rest of my days.
She said that I felt familiar but didn't know why.
She said she would never guess she was guarding the other half of my soul.
Boy was she right.
I realized then that all of this was by God's design and I'm so glad he did. It saved us both and brought us back together where we belong.
After that we talked and decided we would finish the tour, and then find another house to live in and rent that one out.
We needed a fresh start. So many memories, and pain in the house.
We've been in this new house a few months now since the end of the second tour.
Sen has been keeping us close though and we hang out with the family a lot on down time.
My wife love her some Yah and I see why she a beautiful reminder of our Fatima, spirit wise.
Me and my wife have been in a beautiful place, just loving on one another, catching up, and enjoying each other's company, all lovey dovey like our teenage years.
It's been Amazing, I just thank God I'm still around to see and enjoy it all.
and I'm thanking God daily for allowing us back into our right minds.
For Allowing us to find our way back to one another.
