I helped a friend today. He needed a ride. Reacquainting with a lost love. It was my pleasure. Making my friend Happy was one of the most significant things I think I've done in my life. He's dying. For as long as I've known him he's been dying. Always in constant pain. His skin as best I could describe changes from the oddest things that are not himself. Only given a few years to live. I've known him for two decades. He's a fighter and he fights for every breath of his life. He is the strongest man I know. And he's an alpha so he bites. He's a gentle bear please do not poke. He has nothing to lose except his heart and the soul that drives him. Coming off of a horrendous relationship for as long as I known him. Debilitated he cannot really truly work his body will not allow it no matter how much he wants it. He always wanted to be a soldier but even that was denied to him. She tortured him and it was quite drawn out. She considered him a burden and a second child and complained about his chemotherapy made him lazy. The great father who cares most for his daughter and would easily kill to protect  Don't poke the bear. This gentle soul deserves nothing less but absolute love and care. Showing him what true love can bring was eye opening and for the first time in a very long time I've seen him happy.  I'm glad that vampire is out of his life and positively can finally be seen.
