The Times She Saved Me Ep. 4 – The Night My Sister Told Me Not to Run… Seconds Later a Gun Went Off

“Stupid is as stupid does.”

Remember that line? No truer words were ever spoken for Tommy and his brother Robert. They were dangerous, a real threat to anyone crossing their path. As crazy as they were, how insane were we when we paid them a visit? It turned out to be a decision that threatened our lives.

The Times She Saved Me Ep. 3 – The Night My Sister Tried to Take a Bullet for Me

I didn’t throw one dice, and yet, I’m looking down the barrel of a gun. My brother had lost; the next sound would be a shot heard around our dying neighborhood. I was prepared to die. My sister Nee Nee had other plans.

The Times She Saved Me Ep. 1 – The Day My Sister Saved Me From a Stranger’s Car

Have you ever had someone save your life?

I have.

My sister, whom we all called Nee Nee, saved my life many times. In this series of five videos, I recall the times that have sat with me for years. My sister Nee Nee is a saint, even though she wouldn’t say so. Over the course of my life, I tried to stay on the path of what’s right. When we have someone who cherishes our life, I feel we owe it to them to live the best life possible. To my sister Nee Nee, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I can never repay you, but I promise to live the best life you wanted for me.

It is my hope you have someone like my sister; if you do, please live your best life possible. Like me, you owe them. May this series of videos, one posted each month, serve as a reminder to live your best life.
